PL HELP PLS Question 12 1 pts A large stone slab was discovered which was inscribed with a message in three different scripts- Egyptian hieroglyphs, Egyptian Demotic, and ancient Greek. When the Rosetta Stone was discovered in 1799, the process of truly understanding ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs began. When it was discovered, nobody knew how to read ancient Egyptian writing. Because the inscriptions on the stone say the same thing in three different scripts, and scholars could still read ancient Greek, the Rosetta Stone became a valuable key to deciphering the hieroglyphs. First, explain how the stone was used to decipher the unknown language of the ancient Egyptians. Then, evaluate the importance of this discovery as it relates to our understanding of ancient Egyptian culture, history, and civilization?
