On Wednesday, July 17, at 2 p.m., join Dr. Jennifer Larson for an event titled “Learn an Ancient Language” to explore the fascinating world of cuneiform, the primary writing system of ancient Mesopotamia starting around 3500 BCE. Known for its wedge-shaped characters, cuneiform has intrigued historians and linguists for centuries. Dr. Larson, who earned her Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1992, is a professor of Modern and Classical Language Studies at Kent State University. Participants will have the opportunity to learn about cuneiform and try writing it themselves. The event is limited to 15 guests.
