From: To: "Ancient Egyptian Language List" Subject: AEL NEW GLYPHSTUDY 2008 SECTION --BEGINNERS BOOK and then ALLEN--SIGN UP Date: Sun, 20 Jan 2008 16:38:35 -0600 Greetings, Just wanted to let the AEL list know that we are starting a new hieroglyphs study section over on GlyphStudy. For the last two sections, 2005 and 2007 we have used Allen's Middle Egyptian, but we've decided to start our 2008 section with one of the fundamentals books before moving the group into Allen. It might be Collier and Manley, or it might be another similar introductory book. So if you are interested in learning to read hieroglyphs, now's your chance. Send your first and last name (you may opt for an alias onlist, if you let me know) and a current email address directly to Karen , kmotc@swbell.net and I will add you to the study section and send you an invitation to join GlyphStudy. You will be able to follow the list discussion and get the details about how we do things as we progress. The collations for the 2005 group are still posted here on AEL as well as GlyphStudy, but we have taken the 2007 group to GlyphStudy only. When the 2005 group finishes--soon they are in 24 of 25 lessons, we hope to start a translation group and we will share our collations here for anyone who might be interested, and I will also announce any readings well in advance. best, Karen mod at GlyphStudy ==============================================================================
