3 History of the hieroglyphic writing ? Hieroglyphs emerge from the preliterate artistic tradition of egypt. It had existed since 4000 BCE. The first hieroglyphs appear on labels and pottery objects dated to about 3100 BCE in the late predynastic period. The last glyphs appear on the island of philae in temple inscriptions carved in 394 ACE. Originally hieroglyphics weree used to write different types of text on different surfaces.
