conclusion
 
Having recognized three big successive stages of the language's development :

- first, commonplace pictography which enables reproducing, in an extremely simplified way, of the reality's perceptions ; pictography was used by our ancestors, it enabled them from transcribing on various supports, "virtual images of the reality " located in their abstraction domain, of images which were not different of ours (think to prehistoric drawings which decorate the caves, notably, Lascaux's cave),
- next, ideography, expression of a more subtle world's understanding that associates proto-concepts to pictograms,
- and the phonetic language where there are soundwaves, 
 
besides, considering that primitive writing (cuneiform) appeared in Mesopotamia towards end of the millennium IV before J.C., a writing that was followed by Egyptian hieroglyph and Chinese ideogram,
nowadays, of numerous linguists recognize in the Sumerians, the first men really able to think.

Talking of this, remember of the word's ambiguity : "thought ", according to the circumstances, that is considered or as an operator or as the fruit of the brain's activities.
Let us be precise and rigorous, when we think, we develop the activities of transcendent order that lead to the concepts, ideas, anticipations ...  

Therefore, the Sumerians were not first men who thought, but they has been the first ones who actualized (materialized to become realities) on clay supports, cerebral potentiality that enable from counting (eighty percent of cuneiforms Sumerian are numeric data concerning trade).

Consequently, it is erroneous from considering the language, in particular the writing, as producers of transcendency.
On the contrary, we can lead abstract activities and express some with the languageit because our I (ego, subject, spirit) is of transcendent order !
