PLEASE HELP ME I HAVE ALMOST NO TIME! Read this excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone by James Cross Giblin.
Once they had mastered the three kinds of Egyptian writing, nineteenth-century scholars had the key to more than
three thousand years of Egyptian history. Within a few decades, they compiled an accurate list of all the pharaohs who
had ruled Egypt, from Narmer in 3000 B. C. to Cleopatra VII in 30 B. C. They discovered long-lost masterpieces of
ancient Egyptian literature. And, by reading bills of sale, shop inventories, and personal letters, they reconstructed what
daily life in ancient Egypt was like for everyone from a slave to a king.
