First Steps in Egyptian Hieroglyphics: A Book for Beginners

Anyone curious about hieroglyphics or wanting to embark on a study of the Egyptian language will find no better guide than this classic primer. The author, for thirty years curator of Egyptian and Assyrian Antiquities at the British Museum, wrote more than twenty books on Egyptology. This practical grammar comprises lists of frequently used signs and determinatives, a vocabulary of about 500 words, a series of 31 texts and extracts (with interlinear transliteration and word-for-word translation), and a few untransliterated and untranslated texts (with glossary), to be worked out independently. Unabridged republication of the classic 1895 edition.
