I had a simplistic pictographic language with my best friend when we were children, for a while. Who knows whether we used it for a day or a week, but not long, I'm sure. We were playing pretend involving our village being attacked by raiders, so it had symbols for man and woman (I'm afraid these two were just the Venus and Mars glyphs), dead man and dead woman (Venus and Mars deflated), kill (a sword coming down on a deflated person), fire, temple, and probably a lot that I've forgotten, as I believe there were at least three sheets of paper full which I still have somewhere. I think I was partially inspired by a brief treatment (school handout? Children's magazine item?) of some sort of Plains Indian pictographs. Amanda
