That's a good answer, but why specifically
written langauge?
Perhaps the emergence of language in general? That would certainly be an incredibly significant event, but perhaps it doesn't really count as an "event" - not nearly discrete enough.
I think all of the truly great occurances in history suffer from this: they are not individual discrete events, hence it is hard to answer the question that the thread starter posed.
