I came across a few things when I typed in "hieroglyphics facts" on Google :)

This was all found on the website Ducksters.com. Here is the link: https://www.ducksters.com/history/ancient_egyptian_hieroglyphics.php

*I did not come up with any of this information. All credit goes to Ducksters.com*

  • It could be written in almost any direction; left to right, right to left, or top to bottom. The reader would figure out which way to read it by the direction of the symbols.
  • They didn't use any punctuation.
  • One of the goals in writing hieroglyphics was that the writing would look like art and be beautiful to look at.
  • A single picture symbol could stand for a whole word, called an ideogram, or a sound, called a phonogram. For example, a picture of an eye could mean the word "eye" or the letter "I".

There's a lot more on other sites, too, but I hope this helps you! :)

There are several Inca features that were different from normal human beings from other areas of the globe. The speciality was the Inca head, since it was larger than normal in size and also were kept bald to display their cranial mass.The Inca mostly kept their head shaved and it continued generation wise. The Inca, specially the Sapa Inca had a very pronounced nose to go along with their huge head. Most of the early Inca got murdered by Atahullpa just prior to the conquest by the Spanish. The Sapa Inca was considered the pure Inca as they only had children from their full blooded sisters to keep the gene intact. </span>

Explain the difference between freedom and slavery in Byzantine society.
ikadub [295]

Answer:

The Eastern Roman Empire or the Byzantium was the extension of the Roman Empire and they considered slavery as legal in their empire. Byzantium slaves included the prisoners from war and they were made to work as slaves in home and in churches.

Slaves of the empire were not allowed to marry until the emperor grants them the permission. There were even slave markets present in many parts of the town and they sold children and adults at fixed prices.

During the period the transition from slave to freemen took place by calling the slave to free labor and employing them in various fields and some even started to seek self-employment.
