Inscribe is cutting words into hard surface. Engraving is also that. But inscribing can be used to refer to anything carved into a hard surface. But engravings are usually meant to refer to symbols and old cryptic texts that we see on stone. I am not sure if I am 100% correct but I have only heard engravings when talking about symbols on stone or sometimes on jewellery while inscribing I have read in history books when they carve out their texts and knowledge
