The book of numbers reading chapter 0

Quote:
"Many thousands of years ago, when people
didn't speak many words, before writing was
invented, before there was money, before there
were even words to describe numbers, people
knew numbers. Although we had no names for
them, we used them."

Question: Who was the first person to use this new system of communacation?
If it was a new form of communication how would people learn and use it?


Comment: I think it is interesting that the people struggled to figure out the differance between six apples and eight apples and that it took them some time to develop the universal language that eventually everyone would understand.
