Summary:
In this section I learn about the Egyptian ‘s writing, temples and art. This
is a interesting section, it let me discover the Egyptian other feature.
I learn about how their writing system grow, I think writing system is more
important in this system, it let us know their history, and Achievement. The
historian don’t know how to read the hieroglyphic, but they found the
Rosetta Stone, a stone cover by hieroglyphics and Greek, it is a key of
reading hieroglyphics.
If I living in that period, I would really want to study hieroglyphics, just
like now I living in this country, and try to learn English.
Wring is an important system, but I think more interesting work is art. Art
is important too, but I think it is certainly hard.
The Egyptian art show on painting, carving, and jewelry three ways.
Their painting cover the wall, tombs, but it also painting on the canvas,
papyrus, pottery, plaster, and wood.
This section is interesting section, it let me discover the Egyptian
Achievements. This is a good way of study.
