Which evidence from "The Rosetta Stone” supports the claim that Thomas Young played a key role in helping to decipher the hieroglyphs on the Rosetta Stone?
Answer
A
Unfortunately, Young abandoned his research, believing that the letters in the cartouche were just an exception . . .
B
Young used an old code breaker's technique of looking for a crib, or a word that can be identified in the text.
C
Champollion deciphered the cartouche by identifying hieroglyphs translated by Young, and he used his knowledge of Coptic to discover that it belonged to the pharaoh Ramses.
D
Young's results were published and fell into the hands of a talented linguist, Jean-Francois Champollion.
