Okay, it's cuneiform. The Akkadian Civ. fell at about the same time as the "Old Kingdom" in Egypt. And for the same reason, drought.
How are you sure this is Akkadian?
Around 3123 BCE, there was an asteroid impact approx. 1,000 Kiloms north of the Med. basin. It had a sudden and profound impact on the climate on a global scale. This is what caused the Sahara to become arid. It's also blamed for the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah.
It also coincides with the decline and disappearance of the Megalithic cultures on the East Coast of the US. That's where my interest is. The climate here changed suddenly from sub tropical to temperate. Evidence shows there were still Mastodon in NJ until this drastic shift. The presence of the Archaic peoples here declined drastically and suddenly. These are the folks I've been tracking here.
To date, there's been no evidence found of a written language. I'm sure they had one.
