| "burning flames, on charcoal" in hieroglyphs |
|---|
Since the origin of the 'black' hieroglyph, and relationships to other forms showing vertical flame-like rises on the end of a flat-triangular shape, there has been discussion of this hieroglyph. As stated above, Schumann-Antelme and Rossini explain the crocodile skin, but with claws. In the 'new age' system of hieroglyph books by late 20th century, early 21st century authors, the text by Collier-Manley describes the same "crocodile skin", Gardiner I6, as burning charcoal with flames. Consequently, there is a common debate ongoing.

Famous quotes containing the words alternative, items, burning and/or black:
“Education must, then, be not only a transmission of culture but also a provider of alternative views of the world and a strengthener of the will to explore them.”
—Jerome S. Bruner (20th century)
“In ordinary speech the words perception and sensation tend to be used interchangeably, but the psychologist distinguishes. Sensations are the items of consciousness—a color, a weight, a texture—that we tend to think of as simple and single. Perceptions are complex affairs that embrace sensation together with other, associated or revived contents of the mind, including emotions.”
—Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
“He is keeping a candle burning in a shrine
where nobody comes,
there must be some mystery
in the air
about him.
I am almost afraid to think to myself,
why,
he is there.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“We lay long in the immense tide
Of shade and shadowy desire
And saw the dusk assail the wall,
The black surge, mounting, crash the stone!
Companion of this lust, we fall,
I said lest we should die alone.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
