Hello folks,
A friend sent me a note that was nothing but symbols. I derived that it is Ancient Egyptian and possibly from the 7th dynasty.
I would simply like to have a working knowlege. I found some stuff that my local library borrowed from another library.
I can make heads or toes from the message and now I need to "counterattack" my friend with something.
Still, I find the language well structured what I can get to know of but there is very little data. I'm aware that these old languages have no real merit in todays languages but still a language thats written with symbols and words.
Anyhoo, thanks folks.
