Jenna drafted this paragraph for her analysis. James Cross Giblin, in The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone, effectively describes the struggle to understand the Rosetta Stone. He uses multiple examples of scholars who attempted to decipher the stone. These examples help the reader see how difficult it was to discover the meaning of the stone’s text. Which sentence improves Jenna’s analysis by adding suitable evidence? Giblin claims that the Rosetta Stone was named “in honor of the place where it was found.” Many of the scholars who studied the Rosetta Stone spoke more than one language. Giblin states that “not even the oldest Egyptians could tell” the scholars what the hieroglyphs meant. The French Army was responsible for sending the scholars the key to the hieroglyphs.
