 The key to translating hieroglyphics

M
The Rosetta Stone is one of the most important objects in the British Museum as it
holds the key to understanding Egyptian hieroglyphs—a script made up of small
pictures that was used originally in ancient Egypt for religious texts. Hieroglyphic
writing died out in Egypt in the fourth century C.E.. Over time the knowledge of
how to read hieroglyphs was lost, until the discovery of the Rosetta Stone in 1799
and its subsequent decipherment.
