A cuneiform letter from the Old Babylonian period (circa 1900-1600 B.C.) shows the first example of ghosting. Written by a certain Sîn-magir to an individual named Sîn-eribam, the letter records the follow line:
Good behavior it is, that I write to you again and again, and you pay no attention to me.
Apparently, previous letters were sent but Sîn-eribam had no intention of every responding.
