Hieroglyphs typical of the Graeco-Roman periodLook up hieroglyph in
Wiktionary, the free dictionary.A hieroglyph (meaning: sacred carving) is a character of a logographic or partly logographic writing system. The term originally referred to the Egyptian hieroglyphs used by Ancient Egyptians, but is also applied to the ancient Cretan Luwian, Mayan and Mi'kmaq scripts, and occasionally also to Chinese characters. Ancient Egyptian writing consisted of over 700 characters where as the English alphabet consists of only 26. Each hieroglyphic character takes the form of a common object from their day.
Egyptian hieroglyphs are divided into three classes - Sound signs or Phonograms, which represent sounds directly, Labeling signs or Determinatives, which come after words and indicate which category of word is being presented, and Word signs or Ideograms or Logograms which represent entire words.
