How did ancient indigenous peoples permanently record their thoughts, ideas, and history?  Take a look at numerous civilizations and their early forms of communication and written language. 
 
This workshop pulls from many of Peopleologie's workshops in which symbols feature prominently to tell stories, literally, figuratively, and cross-culturally:  Egypt, China, India, Australia, West Africa, North, Central and South America.  Choose a culture to highlight for the hands-on activity from one of these or from another culture or focus.
