Egyptian Hieroglyphs for Everyone is an introduction to the fascinating realm of Egyptian hieroglyphs. It helps pull back the curtain which still partly shrouds the world of ancient Egypt in the minds of many people. Close analyses of existing remains by language experts and scientists have shown that hieroglyphs - the unique style of writing composed of pictures - goes back in Egyptian history to at least 3100 B.C. Today the distinctive characters drawn so skillfully by the ancient scribes remain graceful and intriguing, even though the style has not been practiced in Egypt for almost 2,000 years. In Egyptian Hieroglyphs for Everyone, you will learn how hieroglyphic writing can be read. This book is not a mere "do-it-yourself" guide to language learning, but rather a careful and engrossing explanation of how the written language of Egyptian hieroglyphs developed. When going to a museum, the reader will have an understanding of the uses and techniques of this ancient form of communication.
