Hieroglyphic writing started in ancient Egypt. This was a complex system of different symbols with no punctuation or spaces between words. It could be read left to right, right to left, or up to down. This was, obviously, very hard to write and master, so hieratic script took its place for more general tasks, like collecting taxes. Eventually, with the reign of the Nubians, this writing was replaced with demotic, which was completely different from the traditional Egyptian scripts.
