First written word in the world:
Sumerian was the first written language, developed in southern Mesopotamia around 3400 or 3500 BCE. At first, the Sumerians would make small tokens out of clay representing goods they were trading. Later, they began to write these symbols on clay tablets.

Dating to the third millennium BCE, tablets found at the ancient Sumerian city of Nippur, are very clear about where the ancient Sumerian God spawned. According to the tablets, on the mountain of heaven and earth , Anu spawned the Anunnaki God's.

'Hursag ' meaning Mountain or Hill is the very first word on the tablet, Making it possibly the oldest surviving written word in the world.
