Ancient Egyptian Symbols were prolific throughout the region, as a way to convey information to the primarily illiterate society. Symbols such as the Ankh, the Djed, the Wes Sceptre, the Winged Solar Disk and many more were instantly recognisable in Ancient Egyptian society, and had an important function in Ancient Egyptian Religion. Although the ruling class, scribes, and wealthy citizens of Ancient Egypt would have had literacy skills, Egypt was largely an illiterate society with potentially only 1% of the population being literate
Ancient Egypt was a literate culture, with the earliest examples of writing surviving from the Pre-Dynastic Period which dates between c. 6000 BCE - c. 3150 BCE. Egyptian literature includes inscriptions, myths and stories, religious writings, hymns, poetry, letters, and court records - just to name a few - and some of these works are often depicted through art which conveys the message through symbols.

"The jet is a symbol that represents levitation; it signifies bringing all subatomic particles of matter in one direction. The ankh, meaning 'thing,' comprises two triangles brought together and a vibration, a frequency that connects them."

"The shepherd's crook is a symbol indicating that two phyla are evolving or have evolved into wisdom. The akhet is not a sun symbol appearing between two mountains; instead, it represents two angles standing towards each other, the so-called mountains symbolizing a wave, frequency, or vibration. The so-called sun is not a sun; it is a wheel held in this vibration. The wheel can be divided into four parts, representing the four parts of the day and night cycle."

When you understand how empires were structured nearly universally, much of which has applied even as recent as the last couple hundred years, you will realize that the bulk of any community has little to no education beyond their trade. Even today, despite all of our advamcements, there are still scores of communities that cannot read or write, or at least do it beyond a very basic level. So it’s a fair assumption to make, let alone backed by documented research of which scholars like this woman and the makers of this channel would have done.

Egyptian farmers, like most agriculturally based people of the past, were perpetually locked into their social position where they didn't have time to learn to read and write. Egyptians furthered this caste system with the belief that their gods had made the earth perfect, and any change in status would lead to destruction. So what else would you call a people with over 90% of the population not being able to read or write?

Correct, but that's not what's being said. Hieroglyphs could mean sounds or entire words. If you don't know what those sounds or words are, then you're illiterate. Seeing that Egyptians were mainly farmers (high 90% of the population), the statement that the majority of Egyptian society was illiterate is factually correct.

First off, though the narrator sounds Australian, she could just as easily be South African or even white Kenyan with that accent, so don't make assumptions based on skin color. Second, how is this stopping "Africans" from telling their "own" story? Third, who's exactly "African" in your opinion? "Kemet" Egyptians have been proven through the archeological record and DNA analysis to be from the modern Syrian, Israeli, and Palestinian region. Then they were further Semitized through the Hyksos invasion in the north, while having sub-Saharan contact through the Nubians. Both of those groups held dynastic rule for a short while. Then the Persians conquered Egypt. Then the Macedonians. Then the Romans. Then the Arabs. So again, who do you believe is "African" in your opinion?

The NKH (Ankh) interpretation is false. The Eqyptian's power came from the verdant agriculture that was a result of living on the nile. Their longevity was due to having the luxury of an endless food and water supply, and as a result, they revered seeds. The Ankh is a sprouted seed, which is where food and medicines from plants comes from. The "loop" is the germ and the three stems are the roots. This was Egypt's way of saying to the illiterate masses, to honor the seed, do not waste them, as they are the key of life. In their artwork nothing is more evident of this theory, than the illustrations of the Ankh being held close to the mouth. I believe this truth has been hidden by the elites to prevent the modern world from reclaiming this powerful cultural icon which might have profound implications against the new world order.

I call bullshit of the people being illiterate. If you want to be taken more seriously by the public who have interests in Egyptian history y’all better take more seriously the questioned age of the Sphinx and it’s water erosion. Instead of ostracizing those who ask the questions that science can explain but don’t fall on the timeline we’ve been taught. Science is a changing of information through study and testing. Fact shouldn’t hurt someone’s career or someone feelings.

Illiterate? This is very insulting. I think these people should stick to european history because it's obviously they don't understand what they talk about.

All wrong and I’ll encourage people not to entertain African history told by a white personal because it won’t be 100% accurate and they will make seem as if it was lackluster when it was a lot more advanced and responsible for world’s society and technological advances of today. As soon as she started off with “did you know that ancient Egypt was illiterate and that’s why they used ancient symbols” I already knew she was speaking from the perspective of US or better yet European versions of history and information. Get the information from better credible sources and that does not mean degrees. Stay blessed y’all.

The last of a withering breed - the pervasive minimization of African knowledge, beliefs systems and wisdom as narrated by those who believe they are superior to all others... Alas, please do enlighten us as to which society was "literate" during those times, and what standards you've employed to determine this?
