No, the hieroglyphs of Egypt had been translated long before his time, but in his work in Crete and Greece he discovered the first inscriptions using Minoan Linear A and Linear B and the script known as Cretan hieroglyphs - he named all three writing systems but he was unable to read any of them.

Only Minoan Linear B has ever been translated - its language is an early and unusual form of Greek.
