In terms of the method of physically writing, Ancient Egyptians used a small brush and ink to write. In terms of the shape of the writing, Egyptians used basic ideographs and pictographs called hieroglyphics to write.

In ancient Egypt, writing was done using a system of hieroglyphs, which were symbols that represented words or sounds. Hieroglyphs were typically inscribed on papyrus scrolls or hieratic script, a simplified form of hieroglyphs that was used for everyday writing. The writing was done using reed pens or brushes dipped in ink made from carbon-based pigments mixed with water or other liquids.
