Petty Bill. Hieroglyphic Sign List: Based on the Work of Alan Gardiner

Museum Tours Press, 2013. — 140 p.This paperback version of the Hieroglyphic Sign List was developed as an outgrowth of our popular, pocket-sized Sign List book. By increasing its size we were able to overcome most of the limitations of the smaller book. It is not just a larger version of the spiral-bound book. It has been completely re-edited and updated. Definitions are more detailed. Sign descriptions have been added. More and better examples have been included. Words have been spelled out in glyphs, and not just in transliteration. However, it is a sign list and not a dictionary and while a good sampling of definitions and examples is provided, it simply cannot be truly comprehensive in this area. To maintain ease of use, the order and the numbering generally follow the sign list in Gardiner's Egyptian Grammar. Variations of a sign are indicated by adding a letter to the Gardiner number. Signs that are not listed by Gardiner are given numbers beginning with 80.
