Module 1 of Egyptian Hieroglyphs for BeginnersSequential Series
Mixed Lecture/Discussion • Low intensity
The Hieroglyphics series will present students with a basic understanding of Egyptian hieroglyphs, grammar, and knowledge about how to proceed with further study. In this sequence of courses we will discuss how to translate steles that you are likely to encounter in museums, as well as their cultural significance. As students progress, the class will tackle more complex translation. Each one-month module builds on the previous one, so students ready to learn Hieroglyphics will communicate with our Director and Professor Gaffney to make the right placement for everyone.

Required Texts

Optional: Collier and Manley's How to Read Egyptian Hieroglyphs: A Step-by-Step Guide to Teach Yourself (2003). You can find it new or used on Amazon (or elsewhere) for sometimes as cheap as $8 used.
