Best Answer

In the process of making a mummy, stones were thrown at the person who made the first cut on the body. When the body arrived one of the assistants made a cut on the left side of the abdomen so that the internal organs could be removed. It was thought to be bad to "hurt" a body like this, so the other assistants would throw stones at the one who made the cut. This was not supposed to hurt him, it was just part of the ceremony.

What would our understanding be of ancient Egypt without the Rosetta Stone?

The Rosetta Stone is fundamental to our understanding of Egyptian hieroglyphs. The key is that the same exact text is repeated three times, first in hieroglyphs, then in demotic script and finally in Greek, which was the most important for our understanding. Since it's discovery, other stones like this have been found, but the original Rosetta stone remains as the key to our understanding of ancient Egyptian culture.
