PLEASE HELL I HAVE NO TIME!Read the excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone by James Cross Giblin.
From his studies of Coptic, Champollion knew that the Egyptian word for "sun" was pronounced rah. He wrote down
the first two letters of that sound, RA. Next he put a question mark for the unknown middle hieroglyph. Then, at the
end, he wrote SS, the sound of the last two hieroglyphs.
He studied the combination: RA? SS. Suddenly he remembered a famous pharaoh whose name appeared in ancient
Greek chronicles and also in the Biblical Book of Exodus: Rameses, or Ramesses. Could this be a hieroglyphic
representation of Ramesses' name?
Based on the excerpt, what detail did Champollion need to conclude that the hieroglyphics might represent
Ramesses's name?
o the pronunciation of the Egyptian word for sun
o the meaning of the unknown hieroglyphic
O the dates that Ramesses ruled Egypt
the part of the Bible in which Ramesses appeared
