{
Hieratic character },
a mode of ancient Egyptian writing ;
a modified form of hieroglyphics ,
tending toward a cursive hand and formerly supposed to be the sacerdotal character ,
as the demotic was supposed to be that of the people .
[
1913 Webster ]
It was a false notion of the Greeks that of the three kinds of writing used by the Egyptians ,
two --
for that reason called hieroglyphic and hieratic --
were employed only for sacred ,
while the third ,
the demotic ,
was employed for secular ,
purposes .
No such distinction is discoverable on the more ancient Egyptian monuments ;
bur we retain the old names founded on misapprehension . --
