Answer: False

Explanation: The statement provided is false. Hieroglyphs were actually the writing system that ancient Egyptians used and before the finding of the Rosetta stone, they were just strange shapes and symbols. On the other form, cuneiform was the writing system that the Sumerians created in ancient Mesopotamia. This writing system was highly developed and it is one of the first documented writing systems in history.
