| Video Discription | Writing... awesome technology or unnatural intrusion? Why did humans start writing? What would our world be like without writing? Here begins the tale of Thoth and Thamus, two legendary Egyptians arguing over the value of writing. Will you take Thoth's Pill, journey into the past and see what we unleashed when we invented writing? In the rest of this series, we'll see the birth and evolution of writing, from early pictographs and logographs all the way to advanced alphabets. Who to thank and blame: Animations, narration and music by NativLang Thamus' speech is my own translation of Plato's Phaedrus 274e-275a.
