Yes. In the Sumerian Tablets, originating from the first civilization known to man, they have depictions of a complete solar system. Their name for the planet was Gaga and in all their writings and cylinder seals it is depicted as the smallest planet in our solar system.
However, the symbols and writings are often interpreted differently from one specialist to the next and we are left to interpret what a dead civilization left behind.
