black professor pointed at the photo which contained the hieroglyphs and said, "Have you heard of ‘the words of God?’ It refers to hieroglyphics. Although they weren’t the earliest people who discovered scripts, they were the earliest people who captured them by camera."
Hieroglyphics were created 5,000 years ago as the script in ancient Egypt.
Today, people believed that Egyptian scripts were the world's oldest writing. They were not only the oldest writing, but also the longest-used script in the world. The Narmer Palette, found by archaeologists, contained some of the earliest hieroglyphic inscriptions ever found. Until recent day, some churches in Egypt had still been using the Egyptian scripts.
This kind of writing was once considered "God's words," so it was referred to as "the sacred engraved letters."
