The new exhibition 'The art of writing' in the University Library uses extraordinary exhibits to show how writing was invented and developed over time. The exhibition takes you to the birthplace of writing: Mesopotamia around 3200 B.C. Back then, nail-shaped impressions were made on clay tablets with a rectangular stilus that was made of reed. This type of writing mostly had an administrative function.
