👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 when we forget history , we are blind to the present.
This is fake, the first person to decipher Hieroglyphic symbols was an arab scholar named ibn wahshiyya, like 1000 years before Champollion.

How very true 🌷
I so wish that your channel has the greatest success! Cheers from America!
Thanks for the great support!
Really nice work, FL! Such an amazing life & huge achievements. But it really is heartbreaking to see hundreds (& thousands) of years' looting, damage & vandalism all over the ancient Egyptian sites...
Thank you!! Very true.
SOOOooooo sad 😖😢
Really loved this one. He usually gets a mention but you never get to learn anything about him. It was fascinating to finally learn what an amazing man he was.
What a brilliant man! To decipher the Rosetta stone? I have a hard time understanding modern languages, let alone ancient ones lost to the ages!😲 Forgotten Lives you always put through such amazing videos that make you sit up and want to listen. Thank you for your excellent work.😊

O lovely ! Not only the way you do it and your lovely narration.
Also that you bring some culture. I find it sad that many young people are unaware of
all that history has to offer. Education is nor hat it used to be - so special thanks for this !
Thanks for the comment and watching!
Great I love these old story's 😁 thanks mate

Bravo!
Forgotten Lives is the best!
Great choice of character!
Love your channel my friend!
Thanks very much!! Means a lot!
Thank You!!
Thanks for watching 😁
Nice preface to a tremendous information world had gotten about Egyptian ancient cultures , after Jean-Francoise Champollion had decifered the ancient Egyptian language. His early death at 41 yrs old after recurrent episodes of syncope was the subject of rare researches. I suggest audience to read about "What Caused Jeanne-Francoise Champollion, Decipherer of the Ancient Egyptian Scripts, Premature Death?"
Authors:
Nasser H Nadim and David Savitsky
And to think I have trouble understanding IKEA directions lol
Funny
Another great video! Seems kind of sad that the stone should be in the British Museum now though. It's just my opinion..... but always feel that such precious items should be displayed in their country of origin. Very smooth presentation on your part.
I generally agree but I visited museums in Egypt around 2003ish. One had a leak in the roof and rain or something was leaking on an exhibit freely. In other words they still don't have the finances to preserve these special ancient artifacts well enough, it seems, unless things have changed drastically.
So he was also a vandal? Well that knocked my childhood admiration down A LOT.
Loving all your stories so far... Great narrating..
Thanks!!
Love your videos. University on the air.
Thanks for the supportive comments :)
I saw a documentary on this dude. He was brilliant.
Very nicely done!!!! I have always been interested in the Rosetta Stone but always busy with other subjects and too lazy to do the research..... Thank You!!!
This video is very interesting.
👍🏼. Ver good
Currently reading the Keys of Egypt.
Ty.
Amazing Job!!!!! Man bummer he died before being able to really get his money.👏👍😎😀
Thanks for watching!

I like the topics that aren't based on criminal behavior! I love history. I just can't get enough!
VERY 😎 Cool
Thanks!
Baby face, my best history teacher 🤩
And yes i love anime so full metal alchemist popped in my head. But stories of truth are in everything so this was a delight. I never heard of chapolian before
❤
Did his family get paid big bucks for his hard work or did someone else get the money
I'm not too sure, from what I read, he didn't earn all that much for all that he did.
👍
Darlin', you should try to increase the volume of the videos. If you're on a pc, it sounds very quiet.
Greta video
Thankssss Maca :D
Been kinda busy kept the stories coming..
Is it not possible for most people that decipher, to accidentally establish their own meaning onto these languages? Possibly getting it all wrong? Just a question. Because I generally wonder.
Great video.would also be nice if you read,the translation and discuss what it means,What great secret lies hidden in the translation?
41! Was he under the so called curse for going in the tombs?
A beautifully told story. Many things to learn here, not the least that Champollion let Young, his rival, get full access to the Demotic manuscripts in the Louvre. The decipherment of every ancient script is a little different. The decipherment of the Minoan Linear A script is described here: ua-cam.com/video/PiLyN9T2stY/v-deo.html
I’m from Ethiopia, we have about 80 languages but no Ethiopic. Makes me curious to know which language is ment by Ethiopic
Hay mike more knowledge lovvbe it ..if you don't mind me asking what's your first name...😇😇😇😇😇🤠great story .. mikie 👻
Hey mike hope you enjoyed, you can call me nic but it keep it a secret 🤫
Cool ok 👍👍👍👍👍
So Cleopatra was written in hieroglyphs on the Rosetta stone?.. hmm, that makes my theory that the hieroglyphs on the Rosetta stone were separated from the building of the great pyramids by a couple thousand years.. and therefore they most likey are completely wrong in translating ancient hieroglyphs written inside buildings and temples.. give a language 2000 years and the translations, especially when dealing with glyphs in general, would completely change.. just helps prove that most of the understanding ancient Egypt is just a whole lot of guess work with very minor concrete understanding.. also he was working on the translation for around 20 years and was eventually forced to release it even though he thought the translation was incomplete and somewhat incorrect..
It amazes me how people just took the artifacts back to their own country. No permission needed. No wonder these treasures are found all over the world!
It has since been learnt that the middle text is not Egyptian Demotic but instead found to be ancient Slavic Macedonian Sanskrit text! The decipher can be seen in the scientific paper called Tracing The Script And The Language Of The Ancient Macedonians PDF which is available for free download, The middle text is actually in the language of Ptolemy Kleopatra and Alexander the Great, the greek text which was included is there for the greeks who were foot soldiers in Alexander's Macedonian army.
The ancient Slavic Macedonian Sanskrit text contains vowels and consonants which was difficult to decipher for many linguists who tried to work it out and failed so it was believed that it's probably Egyptian Demotic and left as that. The problem is that no one ever seems to mention that the middle text wasn't deciphered but states it like it's well understood, even though it wasn't, but that's all changed now! It has been deciphered and now known that it's the official language of the Macedonians, Alexander the Great was Macedonian anyway and the middle text now makes sense for why it's there.
The paper is a very fascinating read, it shows how advanced the Macedonian linguistic skills were in 196Bc... We use the same vowels and consonants today! Something that the greeks were lacking back then!
When you think about it, without advanced linguistic ability, Alexander the Great wouldn't have been able to have the support of a nation to conquer and command!
@@alexsg870 this is the old understanding.... It's not demotic, it's Sanskrit.... The museum is a bit slow to update their records.
Ibn wahshiyya deciphered heiroglyphs 1000 years earlier
So
So what did it say
Obviously nothing worth mentioning
Ibn washiya cracked the code 800 years before Champollion did
Really?? Never heard of him.. Can you tell me more?
LOL
Yeah but Napoleon never existed. But maybe neither do we.
He deciphered nothing. The stone carried three parallel languages of the same text
