i was assigned Ancient Egypt pretty early on, i made my mum read to me things like the process of mummification for bedtime stories

Same here. By around 3rd grade I had taught myself how to phonetically read/write hieroglyphs. So I would write all sorts of English stuff in hieroglyphs, but I still couldn't actually understand ancient Egyptian.
