I consider myself as one of the people who would be well-served by the encoding of Egyptian hieroglyphics. But Dover has a book on writing heiroglyphics, a book on Egyptian and a two volume dictionary, all currently in print. They've also turned up in a book on the masons, and I've seen a dorm floor paint their walls with them. As for Phoencian, the only place I've ever seen it is in charts of alphabets, often as not sitting next to a comparison of Fraktur to Roman script. It could be a font variant of Latin for all those charts matter. I don't think there's any active popular usage like that for runic or hieroglyphics. -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm
