Speaking of The Bronze age, there are some old theories that have been abandoned.
Mesopotamian civilization was originally credited with the invention of the wheel by several, mainly old sources. However, recent sources and evidence points to prehistoric Eastern Europe as the origin of the wheel, rather than Mesopotamia as previously believed.
It was once thought that the Egyptians learned writing from the Sumerians, but now most historians say that the Egyptians invented writing independently.
The first letters were invented in Ancient Egypt to serve as an aid in writing Egyptian hieroglyphs; these are referred to as Egyptian uniliteral signs by lexicographers. This system was used until the 5th century CE, and fundamentally differed by adding pronunciation hints to existing hieroglyphs that had previously carried no pronunciation information. Later on, these phonemic symbols also became used to transcribe foreign words. The first fully phonemic script was the Proto-Sinaitic script, also descending from Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was later modified to create the Phoenician alphabet.

Knowing Peppermint Patty, this is probably a history test, and the answers are the Delaware river, 1776, England, George Washington, and Virginia.

Why in the title panel Peppermint Patty acts like the letter “Q” for “QUIZ”?
