All along, I thought of ancient Egyptian writing is a 'picture word' is 'what you want to draw what' kind.
Just as we first Chinese Oracle, would like to express our ancestors 'ding' and went 'ding painting', the results draw a cat person ... ▼ Star
'Picture word' slowly evolved, and ultimately not how like 'Graffiti', and like the Chinese, are the last to leave the abstract 'ideogram'
You see, now 'Ding' word is not how like 'cat Mimi' it ▼.
The reason I always thought the ancient Egyptian text is the 'word picture', it is because they are full of character in people, ah, birds, snakes and the like, it can not picture it? ? ▼
But the wisdom of the Egyptian people actually Wudeng civilians can fathom, the fact that Egypt is not only the text can be the same as the Chinese 'ideographic', but also cattle fork to between both the English 'phonetic function'.
The door Pharaoh's 'bible text', buried thousands of years, until the emergence of a stone, only to wake up, and that is the British Museum's greatest treasures - the Rosetta Stone ▼.
Rosetta Stone
So a text engraved on the stone: 'Pharaoh Ptolemy V ascended the throne, will take a series of New Deal bla bla bla'.
Moment what is not important is engraved these words, it uses three different languages.
The first and second languages are ancient Egyptian, (the difference between the official version and the popular version) ▼.
The third language is Greek, but do not forget that Egypt was ruled Greece, ah!
As a result there is a play, because we are able to read Greek clatter, with this 'Greek Ancient Egyptian scapegoat', the ancient Egyptian writings do not break every minute thing.
But the fact is that human beings took almost 23 years to crack this text, because no one actually did not expect this text will also gnaw father 'phonetic' last thought up this point, the French genius linguist 'Champollion' ▼.
Champollion Jean · François Champollion
Champollion how genius? 5-year-old learned to be Old Latin, Hebrew, Persian, Sanskrit, and finally to break the Egyptian writing, but also learn Chinese ...
Wild child who my entire college career 'Fourier uncle', in Champollion 11 years old, and he has become academic-based Friends.
However, even the genius, is also almost 'ancient Egyptian' tortured to collapse, decipher Egyptian writing not long after he died.
In fact, in this area of Egypt to decipher the text, Englishman Thomas Young, yes, that do the 'double slit experiment' of Mr. Yang, but he has been walking in front of Champollion ▼.
Thomas Young
According to the British grab his first home 'Rosetta Stone', cracked the ancient Egyptians 'digital systems'. Digital painting is an image system, better get ▼.
You can understand, '11457' is how to draw out? ▼
Yang also found that, as long as it is one of the oval pattern, necessarily represent the pharaoh's name. Because the ancient Egyptians are convinced that there is a magic name, add a circle can play outside 'impregnable cocoon' effectiveness ▼.
Then, no matter how hard he have what the progress, in the wrong direction ah! Yang can only cry every day, holding the Rosetta Stone. Champollion was even worse, he did not have to hold even the Rosetta Stone, only against the French inscription written down crying.
Holmes said: When you have eliminated all possibilities, then the rest is certainly truth to that, no matter how incredible it looks again.
Champollion thought so, though he did not know Sherlock Holmes ...
He got two pharaoh's name: Ptolemy and Cleopatra ▼
Both names are p, l, o, Stop being a hypocrite if that Egypt is phonetic, then you can find the same pattern in position p, l, o's!
Sure, 2,4,5 1,3,4 symbols and symbols Cleopatra Ptolemy in the magically fit, Oh my lady gaga, Egypt and the French text really, is phonetic ah! I want to fire it!
The picture below is a small business end-drawn alphabet ancient Egypt, you can try to paint their name on the Egyptian version of Oh ▼.
Because of the small business successfully escaped the ancient Egyptian script, the ancient Egyptian civilization began to slowly emerge, sleeping Millennium Pharaoh finally wakes up, it really is somewhere Champollion was chosen Pharaoh's men ah!
To thank the Government of Egypt Champollion made of Egyptian culture, will give the French an obelisk, obelisk chu French people put this in the 'Place de la Concorde' on ▼.
