The symbols used in the earliest form of European musical notation was called what?

The earliest form of European musical notation is known as neumes. These symbols were used in the Middle Ages to indicate the pitch and rhythm of Gregorian chant, serving as a precursor to modern musical notation. Neumes provided a way for singers to remember melodies and were typically written above the text of the chant. Over time, this system evolved into more precise forms of notation.


What shape were neumes?

It depends what kind of neumes you are talking about. The most common, and latest developed type of neumes were rectangular or square (as opposed to modern notes, which are oval or round). The square neumes were the kind that were written on a staff. Before they existed, however, there were "in campo aperto neumes", which literally means "in an open field". This means there was no staff, and they were just kind of free floating. Those looked more like old fashioned short hand than anything else. They gradually developed into the square neumes.
