    Archaeologists have unearthed notched bones that are at least 20,000 years old. They think these were used to mark the passage of time long before early man had developed written language. In my opinion, notched bones do not a calendar make, but it does show that man was interested in the passage of time. Most likely the calendar would have been one of the first uses of writing when it was invented.
