5.0 out of 5 stars History of Egyptian Hieroglyphs, 10 May 2006

By L. Klaja - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Aidan Dodson (Hardcover)

3,500 years ago the hieroglyphs were invented by the Egyptians and were in use until the death of Cleopatra in 30 BC. when the Romans conquered Egypt. This book traces the history and use of hieroglyphs by the Pharoahs as well as a description of the hieroglyphs and translation of the hieroglyphs themselves as they were translated by Champollion the first man to decipher them. There is also a list of the pharoahs and other rulers of Egypt illustrated by their Cartouches.
