Saw the Rosetta stone
in the British musuem.
Carved in 196 B.C. it has Hieroglyphics on the top part, used in all the religious scriptures.
Demotic language in the middle, which is the language of the learned men in Egypt.
and the bottom most part is written in Greek, language of the Government.
Civilization perished, what remains is the ruins.
Treasure it.
