Really? There were organized civilizations thousands of years before the first alphabet appeared, and still then civilizations were bustling the world over before the creation of what we now know as parchment paper.
The only thing that generational-static writing might have helped vault is the recoginition that these cultures existed, and that they were smart (better fit word: "aware") enough to utilize it to preserve their history throughout the ages.
