Answer 3

Egyptian Heiroglyphics
they are pictures used to represent meanings that are not always obvious Uses An ideogram, like a sign that looked like a man meant man, or something close , so a man walking might mean " walk " A phonogram, where an eye placed after an otherwise unidentifiable symbol meant that that symbol had something to do with looking. And a picture of an owl would mean the sound of the letter "m" since m was the main consonant in the word for owl
They were used to record history, or tell a story, all the things we use our language for now. They were carved on to walls and pillars, (the ones on the pyramids tell the story of its occupant ) or on papyrus as historical records or bookkeeping .
