Hieroglyphs on a lintel.
The ancient Egyptians created hieroglyphs shortly before 3100 B.C.E., and used the script for almost 4000 years. Hieroglyphs were written on papyrus, carved in stone on walls, and used to decorate many objects of cultic and daily life use. There are over 700 different hieroglyphs, some of which represent sounds or syllables; others that serve as determinatives to clarify the meaning of a word. E1823
