Advertisement- Where did it start?
A long way is the simple answer to that question, but just how far?
The real truth is that advertising in its own right dates back thousands of years and the Egyptians are known to be the real inventors. Egyptians have always been known as famous inventors but this has surely got to go down as one of their best inventions.. They had already previously started to use papyrus (first paper) to record many things on. The Egyptians then did something that was quite remarkable, they started to write down advertisements on this paper and post it around the cities. It was this that kicked everything off with the rest of the world’s future generations.
It is also known that Pompeii, the city destroyed by the terrible forces of nature, actually had used adverts to show off commercial messages.The middle ages took on the idea of advertising in their own special way, as they invented the image form of advertising.It was also around this time that Town Criers were used to advertise many things such as fruit and vegetables.
If you were then to think foward many, many years the invention of the radio came into play and of course with this came the quirky jingle advertisements. The next revolution in advertising was of course the television, which in turn heralded the design agency started to come about.
If you look ahead once more you can start to see the shocking way advertising has grown, it has now gone into almost every sector from public transport to schools. These days of course we see a variety of different advertising and branding media, from direct mail marketing to twist banner stands – all a natural part of the evolution of advertising.
What is the future of advertising? With every new piece of technology advertising seems to sneak its way into the world, so be prepared to start seeing it get a lot worse.
