Overview of Glyphdoctors Gallery

Welcome to Glyphdoctors Gallery. This feature of the Glyphdoctors Web site has five goals:

To tell the story of a particiular hieroglyph: what it represents, how it is used, and other interesting information about it
To teach you how to draw the glyph through animated clips
To show examples of how the sign was actually written on papyrus or carved in stone
To show what the hieroglyph actually represents in real life
To offer links to other Web sites and books you can purchase that reinforce the above goals

Here, we offer just a couple examples from the Glyphdoctors Gallery. Enrolees in our future online hieroglyphs courses will gain access to a more extensive gallery.

The hieroglyphs are organized at the left according to their name in Gardiner's sign-list. To enjoy this feature fully, you will need to have Macromedia's free Flash Player installed on your computer.
