Jonathan Chetwynd used to specialise in that area. However, the work he did

Subject: [WebAIM] Graphic symbols for people with low or no literacy

Has there been any research or does anyone have experience designing a web
site for those with low or no literacy and the best type of graphic symbols
for navigation, etc.?

Thanks.
