OBJECTIVES
- In this lesson you are to be introduced to the hieroglyphic writing system of Ancient Egypt.
- Also, in this lesson you are now to be introduced to the hieroglyphic scripture of the Teaching of Aset and Ra that will be covered in the rest of the series of lessons.
- This lesson is not designed to provide an in-depth understanding of the Medtu Neter but just to introduce it to give an understanding of the basic principles.
