EGYPTIAN DRAWINGS
Anatolian hieroglyphs are an original logographic writing system in Central Anatolia and consisting of about five hundred signs.
Used mainly in monumental inscriptions, involves writing a Luwian dialect known as "hieroglyphic Luwian" to distinguish it from the letter written in cuneiform Luwian in the 2nd millennium BC.
Were called "Hittite hieroglyphs", but the language they encode proved to be Luwian, not that of the Hittites; the term "Luwian hieroglyphs" is used in English language publications.
They are typologically similar to Egyptian hieroglyphs, but do not derive graphically from that script, and are not known to have played a role as sacred in Egypt.
Signs of Anatolian hieroglyphs, as well as have no connection with the Egyptian hieroglyphs, even with those Cretans.
There is no demonstrable connection to Hittite Cuneiform.
