In an ancient civilization, although also true for any other civilization, writing spreads knowledge in several ways. For one thing, it is simply an additional source for knowledge; that is, it is additional to oral sources. For another thing, it is a long-lasting source for knowledge: it preserves and thus passes down knowledge from one generation to another.

People communicated with each other, and humans are often proud of their achievements. They showed each other things. Knowledge was traded by talking, watching how other people did things, seeing how other people made things and by reading the literature of other peoples.
