One can understand from the passage that ----.
As much artefact as document, the Rosetta Stone is a
slab of black basalt that bears an inscribed text in
ancient Greek and in two forms of old Egyptian writing:
formal hieroglyphics (as seen on royal tomb walls) and
the more common demotic script. In 1799, during
Napoleon’s occupation of Egypt, some of his soldiers
found this rock on the Rosetta fork of the Nile River near
Alexandria. The stone was carved about 2,000 years
earlier, in 196 BCE. When the French soldiers
recovered the stone, nobody knew how to read
hieroglyphics. The Ancient Egyptian history seemed lost
forever until scholars Thomas Young and Jean Francois
Champollion worked long and hard to decipher the
Rosetta Stone, establishing that the three texts all said
the same thing in different languages. Using his
knowledge of ancient Greek, Champollion was able to
announce in 1822 that he could read hieroglyphics. The
Rosetta Stone provided an entryway into the remote
Egyptian past.
