Most of the cultures have influenced in the development of the writing, as we can see by the discoveries of the remains found, for example, since the birth of the cuneiform writing from the years 3000 before Christ, followed by the hieroglyphics of the Egyptians in the various papyri, form the best known the Ebers 1550 before Christ, Edwin Smith in 1650 B.C. The Greeks brought the 5 vowels, the Chinese with the discovery of the paper. In Mesoamerica, the Mayan with their 700 glyphs of the third Century B.C., their calendar, etc. The Mexica codices, of “Sahagun” and Badiano or Badiano’s Cross, in Latin “Libellus de Medicinalibus” in 1552 for the Martín de la Cruz. The discovery of the printing by Johannes Gutenberg in 1436 changed the world. In the Middle Ages the xylography was used. In 1665 appeared the first scientific journal, “Journal des Scavans” and in 1679 the first medical “NouvellesDécouvertes”, both were edited in Paris by Nicolas de Blegny.
