Hieroglyphics

Today, hieroglyphics are only used as decorations, particularly to convey an Egyptian theme.

The advantages of a phonetic alphabet has is that it was less complicated to read and understand. Writings such as Chinese or hieroglyphics of ancient Egypt have thousands of different symbols that can be easily confused with others.

The Red Sea to the east was to hard to cross

The Cataracts to the south were to dangerous

Egyptians had more than one language. They created hieroglyphics, the famous markings often written on Egyptian pyramid and tomb walls. They had spoken and written languages too. Old Egyptian was spoken at the time of the building of the pyramids. Middle Egyptian was used later and is seen written on government and financial documents. Lastly, Coptic, the final form of Egyptian, was used at the end of the empire. It is considered to be more like Greek than Egyptian as it only used a few letters from the Egyptian alphabet, and most letters from the Greek alphabet. Coptic was mostly spoken by the first Christian Egyptians.

No, the majority of people never learned to read or write. This wasn't a problem since there was nothing for them to read - no newspapers, no posters, no books, no magazines, no written announcements or anything like that.

The priests, accountants and scribes who needed to be able to read were taught in temple schools, where many of the written records were kept.

because they are writing and writers

1. He is the greatest pharaoh ever ..they call him the legend pharaoh or the emperor pharaoh and he is considered the greatest ruler of Egypt at all times . ..Thutmose III reigned from 1479 BC to 1425 BC according to the Low Chronology of Ancient Egypt. Widely considered a military genius by historians, Thutmose III made 16 raids and wars in 20 years and won them all . . He was an active expansionist ruler, sometimes called Egypt's greatest conqueror or "the Napoleon of Egypt."[13] He is recorded to have captured 350 cities during his rule and conquered much of the Near East from the Euphrates to Nubia during seventeen known military campaigns. He was the first Pharaoh after Thutmose I to cross the Euphrates .That means he ruled the entire Middle East .
2. Much is known about Thutmosis "the warrior", not only because of his military achievements, but also because of his royal scribe and army commander, Thanuny, who wrote about his conquests and reign. The prime reason why Thutmosis was able to conquer such a large number of lands, is because of the revolution and improvement in army weapons. He encountered only little resistance from neighbouring kingdoms, allowing him to expand his realm of influence easily. His army also had carried boats on dry land.
3. He was well known by loving arts and culture ...although he was very strong and had unbelievable physical fitness ..also he hated to be unfair or unjust and always warned his ministers and officers to be like that ..Thutmose III was a great builder pharaoh and constructed over fifty temples..... Egypt was at it's golden moment and the most important regional power

It was said that they thought if they didn't draw both legs and arms then in the after life they wouldn't have the ones not drawn and they say that the reason they only draw half of the face is because they were scared that it would look too life like

water from the nile was diverted by digging ditches in the ground in fields, when the river raised the water would go down the ditches. the ground would then soak up the water and plants would grow.

The hieroglyphics of Egypt are one of the oldest forms of the written word known to man. The discovery of the Rosetta stone made it possible to read the hieroglyphs.

Human beings, in their modern form, have been around for nearly 200,000 years, and most scholars believe that the use of language dates back at least that far. For most of this time language was oral only, as it still is in some isolated cultures; writing developed only very late, around 3500 B.C., when the Sumerians in Mesopotamia developed cuneiform writing, which utilized wedge-like marks (Latin cuneus means "wedge") on clay tablets. Egyptian hieroglyphs developed soon thereafter, coming into use sometime before 3000 B.C.

It meant "Great House" , but by the New Kingdom it meant "He of the sedge and the bee". The sedge and the bee stand for Upper and Lower Egypt. Other terms for that would be "King of Upper and Lower Egypt" and "King of Two Lands".1

That was the Rosetta Stone, so named for the area it was found in.

It had chiseled on it a decree from Pharoah Ptolemy in 3 languages. A couple of thousand years after the Rosetta Stone was first made, scientists could use their excellent knowledge of Greek to figure out the Egyptian glyphs. It took quite a while for them to "get it".

Hieroglyphic script was very complex and hard to use, the signs very elaborate. There was a simplified, cursive version of signs; even this was not easy. As the Egyptian language developed into Coptic, it began to be written in an alphabet based on the Greek alphabet, far simpler and easier than hieroglyphs.
