UGARITIC ALPHABET
For civilizations near river valleys of the Near East, Clay was the most suitable material to write upon. Clay can easily be worked into a flat shape. While moist, it can be scribed with a pointed stick or reed, and if left in the sun to dry, it could be easily moved and have considerable durability. This Ugaritic alphabet was developed through the stick in clay method.
