In 1799, when Napoleon’s army was dismantling a wall in Rashid, Egypt, they discovered the Rosetta Stone. Little did they know that this 11-inch thick piece of rock would be one of the greatest discoveries in history! It contained Egyptian scripture, with Greek also on the stone. This was used to decode the once-lost Egyptian writing system. Before the 1800s, attempts at trying to uncover the secrets held by the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics found on walls inside numerous tombs were useless. The pictures were falsely believed to be symbolic, representing some sort of object or idea. Something soon changed all of these misconceptions. 1799 was the year of a great breakthrough in Egyptology. This year it was found that people thought this stone was revealed a whole different story showing its history, its backstory, who was on it, and what it was made for, it was much more than what people thought and were truly a breakthrough.
