Answer:

Drafting history goes back to 2000 BC. When a fossilized plan was found showing an aerial view of a Babylonian fortress. Today we may still make maps, but the twenty-first century designer uses his or her technical communication skills by applying an international language of art and graphics to convey information.

Step-by-step explanation:

Drafting uses a strict set of standards and rules, so when a technical picture is created on the drawing board or on CAD, it can be universally understood. A designer communicates ideas, concepts and facts pictorially so that others can manufacture, fabricate, build or construct from these illustrations.
