Core 1

Egyptian writing was simplified to Hieratic Script and it had pictures to represent ideas.Scrolls

and

papyrus

were made out of

reed stems and used for Egyptian writing. Scribes have a very important job in the government and work for the pharaoh. Egyptians wrote on papyrus which was very expensive, and used a brush called a menhed.The Rosetta Stone was found in 1799 and it was used to translate Greek to Egyptian writing. A cartouche is an oval slab that had a kings name on it and placed in the tomb. Letters and symbols are written in columns from left to right or vice versa. Slide70

Core 2

Picture writing was very intricate so Egyptians made an easier system called Hieratic Script. Egyptians made

paper

called

papyrus

from reed stems. Scribes had jobs like collecting taxes and worked for the pharaoh.A menhed is a writing tool used on papyrus, which was very expensive. A soldier in 1799 discovered the Rosetta Stone and it had 3 languages in it. Champollion figured out how to read the cartouche and was able to understand hieroglyphics.Hieroglyphics is written in columns and many directions from left to right and vice versa. Slide71
