curiologic
(gcide) | Kyriological \Kyr`i*o*log"ic*al\, a. [See Curiologic.]
Serving to denote objects by conventional signs or
alphabetical characters; as, the original Greek alphabet of
sixteen letters was called kyriologic, because it represented
the pure elementary sounds. See Curiologic. [Written also
curiologic and kuriologic.]
[1913 Webster]
Note: The term is also applied, as by Warburton, to those
Egyptian hieroglyphics, in which a part is put
conventionally for the whole, as in depicting a battle
by two hands, one holding a shield and the other a bow.
