How The Rosetta Stone Unlocked Hieroglyphics
Thanks to the British Museum! Go help choose their first YouTube series: https://youtu.be/luXVd6M-wQM
The Rosetta Stone is one of the most famous archaeological finds in history: and it was the key to cracking Egyptian hieroglyphics. And while it took scholars years to work it out, there was one clue in there that helped unlock everything that followed. After hours in the British Museum, I went to explain...

The Rosetta Stone and what it actually says with Ilona Regulski | Curator's Corner S7 Ep7
The Rosetta Stone is one of the most famous objects in the British Museum. But what is it? What does it actually say? And did you know that since the discovery of the the Rosetta Stone in 1799, another 27 copies have been found throughout Egypt, the most recent being discovered in 2011?
If you answered no, don't worry! Dr Ilona Regulski, Curator of Ancient Writing at the British Museum has this and so much more to tell you about the object that unlocked ancient Egypt.
If you answered yes, well done for having completed the set reading ahead of time. However, there's still loads more to learn about this amazing object, so stick around for a while.

Rosetta: The Mystery of the Rosetta Stone
Join Gary Kent as he follows archaeologists and linguists as they decode this strange inscription and reveal the secrets of ancient Egypt.
The Nile flows 6,700 kilometres from its source in Equatorial Africa to the Mediterranean Sea, covering one tenth of the earth’s circumference, and passing through nine countries. Its length is almost twice that of Australia’s Murray/Darling River System and 400km longer than America’s Mississippi River.
Today, as for thousands of years, the central fact of life for the Egyptian people is this river, the Nile. The ancient Greek historian, Herodotus, rightly said that ‘Egypt is the gift of the Nile.’ Without the Nile, there would be no Egypt as we know it! You see, the land of Egypt is 96% desert. Less than 4% of its total land area is productiv...

Join Gary Kent as he follows archaeologists and linguists as they decode this strange inscription and reveal the secrets of ancient Egypt.
The Nile flows 6,700 kilometres from its source in Equatorial Africa to the Mediterranean Sea, covering one tenth of the earth’s circumference, and passing through nine countries. Its length is almost twice that of Australia’s Murray/Darling River System and 400km longer than America’s Mississippi River.
Today, as for thousands of years, the central fact of life for the Egyptian people is this river, the Nile. The ancient Greek historian, Herodotus, rightly said that ‘Egypt is the gift of the Nile.’ Without the Nile, there would be no Egypt as we know it! You see, the land of Egypt is 96% desert. Less than 4% of its total land area is productive. All the rest is dry, barren desert.
From the air it can be clearly seen that the only productive land in all of Egypt is found along the banks of the Nile River. Egypt has no forests. Rain is almost unknown. Egypt is a very dry place, and its only reliable source of water is the Nile. Egypt is about one-seventh the size of Australia and has a population of over 100 million. 97% of them live on less than 4% of the land which means along the banks of the Nile. Effectively, Egypt is no wider than the Nile valley. Beyond the Valley, there is nothing but sand. And so, for thousands of years, the whole economy of Egypt was dependent upon this great river.
To the ancient Egyptians, this river was the source of life, and civilisation began along its banks. Great religions were born here - even the Bible story. Its first writer, Moses, was plucked from the waters of the Nile as an infant and reared by an Egyptian princess. This mighty river enters southern Egypt and flows past the magnificent monuments of Abu Simbel, the majestic temples of Luxor, the fabled Valley of the Kings with its 64 royal tombs, and the enormous pyramids of Giza.
Finally, it makes a wide sweep past the little town of Rosetta, also known as Rashid, and ends its journey at the Mediterranean Sea.
Now, it was here at Rosetta, near the mouth of the Nile that an amazing discovery was made – one of archaeology’s greatest finds of all time. Here’s how it happened. Napoleon Bonaparte invaded Egypt in 1798. Accompanying his army was a team of 175 French scientists and artists. They were to map the land and study the mysterious monuments of Egypt. Strange hieroglyphic picture-writing on the temple walls and monuments looked down on Napoleon’s men.
This fascinating picture-writing can be seen today etched everywhere on the huge columns and blocks of stone. Yet, not a person in Egypt, or in all the world for that matter, could read these strange inscriptions.
In fact, for 15 centuries the knowledge of this writing was lost to civilisation. Men had gazed fascinated upon Egyptian hieroglyphs without understanding their meaning. The ancient Egyptians were a mystery because no one could read their hieroglyphic writing. But in 1799 one of Napoleon’s officers, Captain Pierre Bouchard, was supervising the restoration of Fort Rosetta on the banks of the Nile Delta. As he was digging a trench, he came upon an unusual stone– just over a metre high, three-quarters of a metre wide, and weighing 762kgs - with inscriptions engraved on it.
Together we’ll listen to civilisations long dead speak with thunder tones to our generation! And there may even be a message from the past, for you and me.

2022 isn't just 100 years since the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb. It's also exactly 200 years since one of history's greatest linguistic puzzles was cracked: when Jean-Francois Champollion made the ultimate breakthrough and deciphered the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic code. To mark this very special anniversary, the British Museum has opened a new exhibition that guides visitors through the story of how hieroglyphs were deciphered. In this special access film, Tristan Hughes is given fascinating insight into the key exhibits by the exhibition’s expert curator, Dr Ilona Regulski.
At the heart of the exhibition sits the Rosetta Stone, one of the most famous artefacts in the World. Ilona explains what the Stone actually is and why its discovery was so important in kickstarting the great race to decipher hieroglyphs in the early 19th century.
But the Rosetta Stone is just part of a much larger story; there were many other objects that academics in France and Britain used as they raced to decipher the ancient Egyptian script. Ilona shows Tristan some of these artefacts, including a long papyrus that Champollion worked tirelessly over with little success. And an emotional letter, written over 200 years ago by Champollion, that brings you closer to the genius himself and the many challenges he faced.
The objects in the exhibition reveal the highs and lows that academics like Champollion and his rival Thomas Young experienced, as they strived to crack the code over 20 long and arduous years. But Trisstan also discovers that interest in hieroglyphs stretched back much earlier than the Rosetta Stone's discovery and the arrival of western European academics. Also on display are some remarkable medieval Arab manuscripts, written in Egypt hundreds of years before the 19th century. And Ilona highlights the important role that these objects also played in the great decipherment story.
200 years since Champollion cracked the hieroglyphic code, the British Museum's new exhibition is shining more light on the people and objects behind this seismic breakthrough, and revealing how the decoding of these small symbols opened up the wondrous world of ancient Egypt to us all.
