DescriptionCartouche with scarab.jpg |
A cartouche amid the hieroglyphs on the sphinx statue by Cleopatra's Needle, including a scarab symbol. I learned from The Code Book by Simon Singh that hieroglyphs represent sounds rather than concepts. It took Egyptologists bloomin' ages to work that out, which is why it took them such a long time to decipher them. |
