REBUSES
Definition: Rebus = (n.) A mode of expressing words and phrases by pictures of objects whose names resemble those words, or the syllables of which they are composed; enigmatical representation of words by figures; hence, a peculiar form of riddle made up of such representations. The oldest reference that I could find on Rebuses is dated 1777!
