The first complaint "letter" (more photos in comment section)  This “letter” was sent in 1750 BC in Mesopotamia from a man named Nanni to a merchant named Ea-nasir.  Nanni was mad that he received the incorrect grade of copper that he had already paid for and that the merchant was rude to his servant when confronted. This was not the last complaint tablet that Ea-nasir would receive. Over a dozen “letters” were found inside his house by archaeologists.  He was known for not sending out the products that people had already payed for or would send them to the wrong people. He would also start a new business as soon as his old one failed.
