Which statement best describes Fourier’s influence on deciphering the Rosetta Stone?
Answers
Fourier was the first to introduce Champollion to a variety of languages which enabled Champollion to decipher the Rosetta Stone.
Explanation:
'The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone' is a book written by James Cross Giblin. The book is about decoding of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics.
Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics were languages that were overrode by other languages which laid buried ancient Egyptian languages. This language was decoded during the time of Napolean Bonaparte's invasion in Egypt as he brought with him many learned scholars and scientists.
Jean-Baptiste Fourier was a mathematician who saved Jean-François Champollion from going into war. It was Fourier who introduced Champollion with variety of languages, which enabled him to decipher the Rosetta Stone.
So, this is how Fourier was influential in deciphering the Rosetta Stone.
