Egyptian Hieroglyphic Blocks
The earliest known examples of writing in Egypt have been dated to 3,400 BC. The latest inscriptions are being made in our factory today. Our 28 block hieroglyphic set embodies all that is Egyptian with an emphasis on education of culture and language. The set contains the Egyptian alphabet (single-consonant "phonograms") multi-consonant phonograms, determinants and numbers.
A guide booklet is included as an introduction to some basic concepts about reading hieroglyphs and we've even included an embossed hieroglyphic puzzle.
