The ROSETTA STONE was the key to unlocking the meaning of the Egyptian language.
The Rosetta Stone got its name from the village that it was found in; Rosetta or Rashid.
While it was originally made to be set up in a temple, after the temple was abandoned the stone was reused as building material in the construction of Fort Julien near the town of Rashid (Rosetta) in the Nile Delta.
