The new language/ alphabet was to allow people to communicate through writing letters on their papyrus sheets to each other, since they lived in such an enclosed kingdom letters were very easy to deliver.

The animation in this period was the use of pictures showing different positions in movement. This particular one shows the training of Egyptian soldiers.
Because of this improvement in communication the civilization thrived.
