• A. Greek
• B. Egyptian
• C. Chinese
• D. Roman

Answer: (B)

Hieroglyphics are the writing system of ancient Egypt, crafted as picture-like symbols that can stand for objects, ideas, or sounds. They were carved on temple walls, tombs, and monuments and learned by scribes who used a formal set of signs. This writing system is distinct from the Greek, Chinese, and Roman scripts, which come from different civilizations and use different types of scripts. So hieroglyphics belong to the Egyptian civilization.
