'''Hieroglyphics''' are a form of [[pictograph]]ic [[writing]] developed in ancient [[Egypt]]. There exists two different sets of hieroglyphs: a more complex form used in carving, and a script known as Hieratic used for writing on papyrus (along with its later form, [[Demotic]]). Hieroglyphs are no longer used in Egypt.
