Another essential for the spread of written communication: paper.
"Those who believe that they believe in God, but without passion in their hearts, without anguish in mind, without uncertainty, without doubt, without an element of despair even in their consolation, believe only in the God idea, not God Himself."  (Miguel de Unamuno)

To take it another step foward, after the printing press, long distance communication. Telegrams, telephones and internets. A global civilization would surely not exist without fast information transfer.
