From: Cramer, Kim

I think technical writing goes back much further than Gutenberg. For
example, the Egyptian Book of the Dead provides instructions on how to
perform the procedures necessary to achieve immortality.
---------------------
Which just goes to show you that even though a technical writer may be
great, he can't make the application bug-free.

My nomination for technical writing in antiquity: God's instructions to
Noah in Genesis 6.
