PICTOGRAPHY
Pictography is a form of writing which uses representational, pictorial drawings, similarly to cuneiform and, to some extent, hieroglyphic writing, which also uses drawings as phonetic letters or determinative rhymes. In certain modern use, pictograms participate to a formal language.
Pictograph can be considered an art form, or a written language and are designated as such in Pre-Columbian art, Native American art, Ancirnt Mesapotamia and Painting in the Americas before Colonization.
