Paging Joshua Hoover, White Courtesy Phone Please

Egyptophile Joshua (and others) will probably find this heiroglyphics translator interesting. AMCGLTD comes out as, well... "hawk owl left-pointing-frond ... rrmm... 'pants' lion 'something' obelisk".

Only thing I wish they'd done was enable a way to link up the names. Ah well. Enjoy!

It seems really unlikely to me that Egyptian heiroglyphics are direct phonic equivalents of our alphabet.

Why not? They were time-travelling space aliens, after all.

I thought it was, "If the King James version of the bible was good enough for the apostle Paul!"
