IV. Read the following source passage and answer the following questions:
Rosetta is a town on the north coast of Egypt, and here an inscribed stone was found, which
contained inscriptions in three different languages and scripts (Greek, and two forms of Egyptian).
Scholars who could read Greek figured out that the names of kings and queens were enclosed in a
little frame, called a cartouche. They then placed the Greek and the Egyptian signs side by side and
identified the sounds for which the Egyptian letters stood. As you can see, a lion stood for L, and a
bird for A. Once they knew what the letters stood for, they could read other inscriptions as well.
