Best Answer

Writing was/is important in ancient civilizations on two fronts. First of all, it was important to the ancients because that was how they kept their records, and their histories. It is important to us, because it gives us insights into their societies, laws, and sometimes into their likes and dislikes. In other words, we get to know them through their writings.
