World's Top 10 Oldest Languages

A full ranking of the 10 oldest languages on the planet just dropped, and the timeline is wild. Perplexity compiled the list, and it starts with Sumerian way back at 3400, 3100 BC. Egyptian follows at 2690 BC, then Akkadian at 2600 BC, Eblaite at 2500 BC, Elamite at 2200 BC, Hittite at 1700 BC, Mycenaean Greek at 1450 BC, Old Chinese at 1250 BC, Hebrew at 1000 BC, and Aramaic closing it out at 1000, 900 BC. The graphic layers in flags and ancient script visuals like cuneiform and hieroglyphs so you get a real look at the early writing systems.
