====== Pictograph ======

This limited set of repurposed hieroglyphs forms the most primitive version of the Alef-Bet, and is often refered to as Proto-Sinaitic, Proto-Semitic, Proto-Caaanite, or Proto-Phoenician.  All of these are in reference to the glyphs. (Sometimes they are called pictograms instead of pictographs.)

The next version of the writing system after the pictographs, which we have included on each of the Alef-Bet entries, is referred to as Paleo-Hebrew.
