Next, read this excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone. The group traveled up the Nile in two boats, stopping along the way to copy inscriptions on temples and monuments. After voyaging as far south as Nubia, they came back downstream to the ancient cities of Luxor and Thebes. At Thebes they camped in the Valley of the Kings, surrounded by the tombs of many pharaohs including Ramesses VI. Following a visit to the ruins of Karnak near Thebes, Champollion wrote in his journal: "At last I have visited the palace, or rather the city, of monuments, Karnak. . . . No nation on earth, ancient or modern, has ever conceived architecture on so noble and vast a scale. . . ." Which detail from the excerpt is the best evidence to support the thesis?
