The Egyptians used three types of writing: hieroglyphics, hieratic,
and demotic. The hieratic and demotic writing systems were
simplified forms of hieroglyphics that scribes used to write
quickly. Egyptians created over 700 hieroglyphs. Each was like a
little drawing. Some were pictures of the items for which they
represented, while others were sounds or groups of letters.
