I think while trying to develop a new hieroglyphic system, it's worth pointing to the History_of_the_alphabet :)

Semitic people in the Levant used a subset of old Egyptian hieroglyphs to represent consonants and the Phoenician traders spread these alphabets over the known world, where they've been changed to fit local phonetics.
