Who invented Hieroglyphics?



Who invented Hieroglyphics?


Hieroglyphics were first discovered when Napoleon’ troops made the discovery in 1799 of the Rosetta Stone, Napoleon's troops provided the critical information which allowed Jean-François Champollion, taking into account the work of other scholars, to discover the nature of the script by the 1820s.

The ancient Egyptians believed that writing was created by the god Thoth; and called their hieroglyphic script "mdju netjer" (words of the gods). The word hieroglyph comes from the Greek hieros (sacred) also glyph (inscriptions) was first used by Clement of Alexandria.

Hieroglyphics were created around 3000 B.C, so roughly about 5,000 years ago. Hieroglyphics are the oldest known language along with Greek and Sumerian archaic, Hieroglyphs can be read from left to right, right to left as well as from top to bottom. Kings and queens names are placed inside a cartouche. In the hieroglyphic writing system, vowels are usually not written. If multiple symbols are be placed on top of each other on the same line, you read the top symbol first.

If I was Prime Minister

If I was Prime Minister…

If I was Prime Minister, I would lower NZ’s diesel and petrol prices,
so that anyone is able to have a nice trip without paying up to $80.
Also, I would change the amount of plastic packaging we have on most of our food
because if we don’t, there will still be a lot of plastic/rubbish in general, floating
around
waiting for fish to eat it and then die.

Being Prime Minister would be challenging because having to make a decision that
only
the South Island wanted and/or needed would make the South Island happy,
but leave the North Island unhappy.

I think I would get my perks having the role of P.M because I’d get see a lot of cool
things,
as in kids who’d want be like me when they grow up, helping the community and\
much more.

I would deal with an unhappy country by, listening to them, responding not reacting
, and do as much as I can to help everyone in my country.

VOTE Kaden for P.M :)
