Day 5. Hyerogriphics or why we are able to exchanges languages because of the Egyptian people
The civilization and people of the valley of the Nile were developed much early than people of the European wilderness.
This African people have taught people of the rest of the world many useful things like irrigation, how to farmer, how to build temples (which were the base of the first temples of the Greeks and the first churches). However, the biggest present they gave to the human race was the knowledge to preserve the speech for the future generations. They invented the art of writting.
When Romans went to Egypt, they found the country full of these incriptions but they did not inquired about their origin because they were not interested in anything foreign. However, years later, Bonaparte, travelled to Egypt in order to attack the British colonies. He did not get beyond Egypt, but there, a young French man found the Rosetta stone which had writtings in three languages and two of them were hyerogriphics and the Greek language which was totally known.
Decipher these hyerogriphics took a lot of years because it was very different to the paintings that our old ancestors drawn in caves about buffalos and other animals. It is because, these hyerogriphics were the first phonetic writings in which the characters represents a sound.
