Egyptian writing, particularly hieroglyphics, lasted so long due to its deep integration into the culture, religion, and governance of ancient Egypt. The writing system was used for religious texts, monumental inscriptions, and administrative records, which reinforced its importance in society. Additionally, the establishment of scribal schools helped preserve and transmit the knowledge of writing across generations. The continuity of religious practices and the reverence for ancient traditions also contributed to the longevity of Egyptian writing until the decline of the civilization.

How many years ago were the Egyptians?
they were last there at 2650BC and now its 2010 so that is............................................ 4660 years ago and the pyramids are still standing! It's debatable when the Egyptian Empire actually ended. It had been in decline for a long time before the end came. It is acceptable to use the death of the last Pharaoh as the end point of Ancient Egypt. The last Egyptian Pharaoh was Cleopatra and she reigned from 51-30 B.C. With Cleopatra's death came the end of the Egyptian Pharaohs. By the time Cleopatra came to power, there wasn't much of an Empire left. It was an imperial province of the Roman Empire. So about 2000 years since the end of the Ancient Egyptian Empire.
