The Rosetta Stone was the key to deciphering hieroglyphs because it is inscribed with three scripts – hieroglyphs, Demotic and Greek. When the Stone was discovered, nobody knew how to read ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, but scholars could still read Ancient Greek. English physicist Thomas Young was the first to show that some of the hieroglyphs on the Rosetta Stone wrote the sounds of a royal name – Ptolemy. French scholar Jean-François Champollion took things further and pieced together the alphabet of hieroglyphs used to write other names.
