Thomas Young
Muy conocido por sus investigaciones y por las numerosas conferencias que realizó como profesor de la Royal Institution.
Young intentó descifrar los jeroglíficos de la piedra Rosseta. En 1818 se publicaron sus conclusiones sobre la traducción en la enciclopedia Británica, aunque después fue Champollion quien realizó la traducción más completa.
Wooden stela
Wooden stela
In this round-topped stela, painted on one side only, the single scene lies above six horizontal lines of text. A 'Kheker'-frieze divides the inscription from the writing. In the arch is a 'pt'-sign, on which are painted stars and below this is a winged sun-disk. Below these is a solar-bark in which are seated the deities Re-Harakhty, Isis, Nephthys and Atum. Their names are painted above them in a cursive script and they all have the Maat-feather on their knees.
The main text reads from right to left and consists of the htp-dj-nsw formula, written in cursive script and unfortunately damaged in places. The outer border of the stela is made up of blocks of red, blue, pink and green, the colours are still quite bright.
