The ''Illustrated Hieroglyphics Handbook'' is part of a new genre of books focused on Egyptian hieroglyphs. The book is a graphics based book with four to seven word examples of each Egyptian hieroglyph; the words are graphically explained for each component of the word, and links to the other entries in the book; each hieroglyph is in ''extreme-artistic-detail'' and can vary for each hieroglyph, word-to-word. The determinatives ending a word are explained, (if there is one). Some determinatives are specific to individual trades, i.e. metallurgy, for example and are not in the Gardiner's sign list of Egyptian hieroglyphs. ==Book layout== The core of the book is based on the Egyptian language, with a chapter each for: *Egyptian uniliteral signs, U1 to U26 *Egyptian biliteral signs, B1 to B83 *Egyptian triliteral signs, T1 to T30 Each hieroglyph is examined with: ''Phonetics and Writing'', (the four to seven example graphically displayed words), and, ''Semantics''. The semantics may tell its history, or some of the complexities dealing with multiple uses or unknown understandings about the hieroglyph. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Illustrated Hieroglyphics Handbook」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
