 		Hieroglyphs on card #219
Hi i am new to this ARG so I havn't gotten any cards yet. But I have been surfing around the wiki to get info and I found a Pic of card #219.

It is written in hieroglyphs and I can read it !

I am a bit rusty since I havent studied middle egyptian for some years but it is a riddle and it goes like this:

I am the revered one of the king
I am the beloved one by my father
I suckle/educate from the ford of the Bull ???
I have written a multitude of books regarding
ancient documents of Egypt (Kemet = the black land)
I have made prosporous the mouth of Egypt
I have made to grow plants and sucamore trees
I am the keen writer of his fingers
I am the gardener, green of finger
What is my name?

Over all this is the words but line 3 is a bit tricky + Egypt is written in fem. in line 5 (correct) but masc. in line 6.

I havn't had time to solve the riddle itself yet but will look at it later.

Let me know if there are any more egyptian texts I can help with. (or other ancient languages for that matter)

 		Hi, and welcome here!

Great job with the hieroglyphs, but there is already a thread here, where they seem to have been solved... or, ugh, at least we think so Confused If you have any objections to the solution, please address them there Smile
