The correct option is C Mesopotamian Civilisation
Cuneiform script or system of writing was developed by Sumerians (Mesopotamian civilization) to convey their language. It is one of the oldest script in world developed around 3000-3500 BC. It is a system of pictograms (i.e use of pictures instead of words) wedged upon clay tablets by use of grass or wooden blocks.
