Evolution of writing materials with emphasis to india project ignou
This document discusses the evolution of writing materials in India from ancient to modern times. It begins with hard materials like stone and metal plates, then transitions to softer materials like wooden boards, birch bark, palm leaves, cloth, and leather. Papermaking originated in China but later spread to India, where early paper industries developed in Kashmir in the 15th century and other centers across India. The techniques of papermaking involved pounding waste materials, soaking them, and filtering the pulp to form sheets, which were pressed and dried. Handmade paper in India was notable for its quality and was exported.

The document provides a history of reading from ancient times to modern times. It discusses how reading evolved from early pictograms to the Phoenician and Greek alphabets to modern punctuation and formatting. Major developments included the Greeks adding vowels around 1000 BC, punctuation being added around 200 BC, lowercase letters in 700 AD, and spaces between words in 900 AD. The last major change was the development of LiveInk in 2000 AD, which allows for automated analysis and presentation of text for improved readability.
Brief history of reading
- Spoken language has existed for over 6 million years while reading, the ability to understand written symbols, is only around 6,000 years old.
- Aristotle recognized the difference between spoken and written language, noting that spoken words symbolize mental experiences while written words symbolize spoken words.
- Over history, humans have developed various writing systems to represent spoken language including logographs, hieroglyphics, alphabets, punctuation, lowercase letters, and spacing between words to aid reading.
- LiveInk is a new technology that analyzes text attributes and presents the information in a way that helps the eye and mind build meaning, representing the most significant advancement in readability in the past 1,000 years.
History of Reading
The Sumerians developed the first system of writing called logographs around 4000 BC which were pictures representing objects and activities. Egyptian hieroglyphs from 3200 BC to 400 AD combined logographic and alphabetic elements and were used on papyrus and wood. The Phoenicians then developed the first alphabetic system consisting entirely of consonants around 2000 BC. The Greeks added vowels to this alphabet around 1000 BC, creating the basis for the alphabet still used today. Punctuation was first observed in plays by Aristophanes in 200 BC, while lowercase letters and spaces between words were innovations of Medieval Scribes in 900 AD, improving readability.

The development of communication technologies over time enabled faster and farther transfer of information.
Mesopotamia PPT- Cuneiform
Cuneiform was the writing system used in Mesopotamia, where pictographs carved into clay tablets with a stylus evolved into simplified wedge-shaped symbols. It was used to record daily events, trade, astronomy, and literature. Over time, as the script was adopted by other peoples like the Hittites and Persians, it became used to write additional Indo-European languages before eventually being replaced by an alphabetic system developed in Ugarit.
Ancient sumerian writing ppt
Ancient Sumerians in Mesopotamia were the first to develop writing around 3500 BC. They created a system of pictographic symbols called cuneiform that were written on clay tablets. Cuneiform allowed the Sumerians to keep records, send messages, and pass knowledge to future generations. Over time, writing systems evolved from pictographs to representing sounds through written symbols like the alphabets used in modern languages such as English and Spanish. Writing has become essential for communication, recording history, and sharing information and stories through books, maps, and other media.

History of Writing
The earliest known forms of writing began as naturalistic cave paintings of animals and people. Early civilizations like the Harappa-Mohenjodaro cultures in 3300-2000 BC used seals for trade that were impressed onto clay tags or ceramics. Sumerians created one of the earliest written scripts called cuneiform over 5000 years ago by pressing pictograms into wet clay tablets that were later baked. Various ancient cultures developed their own writing systems, including hieroglyphics in ancient Egypt and palm leaf manuscripts in Tamil culture. The printing press was invented in the 15th century, allowing mass production of texts like the Gutenberg Bible.

Ιστορία του χαρτιού.pptx
Before paper, various materials were used for writing around the world depending on the local environment, including clay tablets, tree bark, papyrus, and parchment. Papyrus was developed in Egypt as early as 3000 BCE and was made by layering strips of the papyrus plant. Parchment, invented in the 2nd century BCE, was made from scraped and processed animal skins. In Southeast Asia, palm leaves and tapa cloth made from mulberry bark were used as early as the 5th century BCE and 4000 BCE respectively. Paper is distinct in that it is made by pulping plant fibers into a watery slurry that is poured onto a screen to form a sheet through hydrogen bonding as the water drains

Here & There Among the Papyri
This document provides an introduction to the book "Here & There Among the Papyri" by George Milligan. It discusses how the book was written to educate the public about the importance of papyrus discoveries in Egypt for understanding the New Testament. It also briefly introduces what papyrus is and the field of papyrology. Several important papyrus finds from the Oxyrhynchus trash heaps in Egypt are then summarized, including early fragments of the Gospel of Thomas, Epistle of James, and Elements of Euclid. Works by early scholars who studied the Oxyrhynchus Papyri like Grenfell, Hunt, Deissmann, Kenyon, Milligan and Moulton
A History Of Writing
Writing originated independently in several early civilizations as a system for accounting and recording inventory, often using clay tokens and tablets. One of the earliest examples is a 4th millennium BC tablet from Mesopotamia listing goods. Pictographic writing later developed in places like Sumer in the form of cuneiform writing carved into clay around 3200 BC. Writing systems also emerged in China in the form of oracle bone script by 1600 BC and in Mesoamerica as seen in the Mayan Dresden Codex. Over time, many scripts like Phoenician, Greek, runic, Arabic, Korean, Japanese, and Indian writing systems were developed to suit various languages.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
