Answer:

B. hieroglyphs and papyrus

Step-by-step explanation:

Hieroglyphs were the main writing process during Ancient Egypt, and the reading of these pictorial elements was only possible by the scribes and priests - for the ordinary people, other writing/reading system was used. These figures (the Hieroglyphs) were written in a papyrus, which was used as paper.
