Answer 2

Answer:

Mesopotamian education largely centered around literacy. ... Due to the difficulty in learning cuneiform script, few Sumerians were literate, although they could probably recognize some common words. Boys probably started school when they were seven or eight years old. Learning scribal skills was hard work.
