Written language in Zacapican has been shaped by evolution and revolution in methods and usage of scripts over the multi-millennial history of writing in southern Oxidentale. The oldest known system of writing was found in what is now the Zacaco Republic, and has been termed A Script written with a reed stylus cutting lines in clay tablets. This undeciphered writing system, presumed to be an ieographic or syllabic script, has been determined to be the written form of an undiscovered primordial Zacapine language which remains one of the great historical and anthropological mysteries of Zacapican. A later writing form known as Huetlacuilolli would be introduced much later through the Nahua migrations of the mid 3rd millenium BCE. Huetlacuilolli an archaic mixture of ideographic and logographic glyphs similar to the Mutulese Tz'ib'najal to which it is most likely related. This would be the only writing system in the region for more than two millennia, and the system through which important writings such as the Cozauist holy books and the classical Aztapaman codices.
