This Website ...


I wrote this website to aid people who are studying Middle Egyptian. I myself became interested in this ancient language through my fascination with the history of the ancient East, and of Egypt in particular.

"Once the hieroglyphic duck bites, it doesn't let go."
---Egyptologist, Emmanuel de Rouge (1811-72)

 

The Blog ...


I thought that using a Content Management System like WordPress would make easier to publish new content.
For this reason I joined this site a blog, you can visit and read it here: TakeNote.it the Blog


 

The Logo


The website's logo is derived from the Egyptian word 'writing-board' where the determinative sign ( stick - M3 ) for wood was substituted with a new different determinative sign ( I hope that serious Egyptologists will excuse me ).
Indeed, computers are the new writing-boards for modern scribes.
