Hieroglyphics ABC Set + stamp pad
Write like the ancient Egyptians!
The hieroglyphs are the characters of the ancient Egyptian writing system. Approximately from 3200 before, until 300 after Christ, the hieroglyphs were probably the most widespread and most common characters of the Egyptians.
At times, up to 7000 different hieroglyphs were in use, making the Egyptian ABC as one of the most extensive in world history.
Your Hieroglyphic Stamp Set contains all the letters from A to Z.
A significant aspect of Egyptian cultural history
The ancient Egyptians called their characters "medu netscher," which translates to "words of God." Their belief was that hieroglyphs were given to them as a gift from Thoth, the god of writing, and so it is not surprising that they served primarily as inscriptions for tomb slabs or temple walls, the most sacred places of the Egyptians.
But also the remarkably structured and progressive bureaucracy of the Egyptian advanced civilization would have been hardly conceivable without hieroglyphics, so much they influenced for example the everyday life, the trade, the military and the administration.
