Best Answer

Hieroglyphics were written out of animals, items, daily things, pretty much anything.

The ancient Egyptians used hieroglyphics on papyrus and clay tablets to record laws, literature and commercial transactions. They also decorated pottery, the stone walls of tombs and other architecture and wooden objects with hieroglyphics.
