I need help with face glyphs used in Mayan hieroglyphics. Thank you.
The academic in me is coming out here. Technically you are both correct. Hieroglyphics used on its own is generally a reference to the ancient Egyptian writing. The term is not exclusive to ancient Egypt though. There is most definitely a thing called Mayan hieroglyphics and is generally seen as having come from the ancient Olmec. See below.
The Maya hieroglyphic writing system was a sophisticated combination of pictographs directly representing objects and ideograms (glyphs) expressing more abstract concepts such as actions, ideas and syllabic sounds. Maya writing has survived on stone carvings, stucco, various manufactured artefacts, and codices.
