Hieroglyphics were the language of the ancient Egyptians. They had developed over an extensive period of time, beginning with simple pictures of things they saw in front of them; IE the christian fish was the symbol for a fish. Over time the symbols altered and eventually evolved into the complex language that is so recognizable today. The language began to die out after Egypt was conquered by the ancient Greeks and the ruling class spoke ,of course, Greek. With that they began to speak other languages as their nation was ruled by several different cultures. Egyptologists rediscovered the meaning of the symbols after the discovery of the Rosetta stone. If you would like to know what the symbols mean you can Google ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics translator and there you go.

There are many things about Ancient Egypt whcih we still do not know, and there are many inscriptions and other writings in hieroglyphics which need to be translated. It is therefore still very important for those who are uncovering this important part of our past to understand hieroglyphics.
