glyph
- n glyptic art in the form of a symbolic figure carved or incised in relief
- Sometimes there are no words at all, only pictures or diagrams or glyphs that may be deciphered into multiple meanings.
- For this journey Promethea follows the Kabbalah, AKA "The Tree of Life," a Hebrew glyph of ten interconnected numbers laid out like a hopscotch pattern.
- Others speculated an unlikely link between Harappan signs and the similarly inscrutable "bird-men" glyphs found thousands of miles away in the Pacific Ocean on Easter Island.
