The Last Two Million Years, Reader's Digest History of Man, 1973, 303. Hieratic is a "simplified form of hieroglyphs the so-called hieratic, or `priestly' script -- was developed for speedier writing on papyrus, & was used mainly for religious texts." Another style of hieroglyphs develops from hieratic used in 7th century BC. "This was the demotic or `popular' script, in which the pictorial quality to the hieroglyphs was sacrificed for faster writing. It was used up to the 5th century AD".
Thanks for answering my other question, Kerry... I think it's a lot of effort to go to for very little payoff, who knows why they did it! :) The question about "Why mention it at all?" still stands... Really interesting, thanks.
There is more money and fame to be found in someone saying that Bermuda Triangle is real than in those who prove it is not. With this in mind, you seem to be a scam artist.
athon.: Are you serious? Is that the best you can do? Drop some cheap unfounded charge like bulls do their dung? If there's a scam it's anti-LDS critics' price they charge churches as they continue to ignore, vilify, & attempt to discredit evidences & spread the bull that "there's no evidences for BOM." (See: They lie In Wait To Deceive, Robert & Rosemary Brown, volumes 1-4; The World's Oldest Writings, Henry James Reynolds, MD 1938, The Antiquities Corp., Chicago, p.28-33, fig.5, 6, 7, & 8.

I assure you, that this man is no scammer, but in fact, an scholar and a gentleman.
His extensive library of texts rivals the best in the community, and his studies ethics are unmatched.
