3. Humans as speaking creatures
The
start
of
the
human
speech
started
some
100.000
years
ago.
Before,
the
shape
of
the
vocal
track
was
not
“ready”
for
the
modern
speech.
The
larynx
was
situated
too
high,
something
you
can
see
with
chimps.
4. Humans as writing
creatures
Sumer
(3300
AD,
Mesopotamia)

written

is
required!
• The

of
HLT
is
needed
(humans
cost
too
much).
