How did Egyptian write?
egyptaion scribes learned to write by using revant images to use as words which are now referred to as hieroglyphics. they were very smart to come up with such an idea. Actually it was the Sumarians who invented Cuneiform, pictograms and it is believed the Egyptians borrowed from this as they themselves gave no historical account of how they learned to write and there is no evidence if any evolution in their writing...hieroglyphics just...appeared. There is clear archeological evidence of the evolution of Sumarian writing from simple clay tokens with symbols drawn on them, to rebus pictograms, to the more complex cuneiform
