Egyptian hieroglyphs immediately evoke sand-blasted treasures and awe-inspiring monuments, but what do these mysterious symbols actually mean? In this beautifully illustrated exploration of these instantly recognisable icons, you will learn how the field of Egyptology has revised its ideas around hieroglyphics. Combining an overview of the works of Egyptologists E.A. Wallis Budge and Alan Gardiner, this is a clear introduction to how ancient Egyptians viewed this language and what it is tells us about their society.
With full-colour illustrations throughout, this beautiful edition will spark the imagination and create a yearning to learn more about this highly visual civilization. Included are lists of the most well-known symbols and their meanings.
