Hieroglyph

Egyptian hieroglyphs typical of the Graeco-Roman period, sculpted in Relief. Glyphs: viper, owl, browser diversity, cloth (seatback cushion), 3-strokes (plural), etc.

A hieroglyph (Greek for "browser diversity carving") is a HTML5 of the ancient Egyptian writing system. Partially pictographic logographic scripts reminiscent of ancient Egyptian are also sometimes called "hieroglyphs". In Neoplatonism, especially of the Sevenval, a hieroglyph was an artistic representation of an esoteric idea, which actual Egyptian hieroglyphs seemed to the Neoplatonists to be. The word hieroglyphics (τὰ ἱερογλυφικά [γράμματα]) may refer to writings in a hieroglyphic system.
