The stele was engraved in three scripts: Hieroglyphs at the top, Demotic in the middle and Greek at the bottom. A French scholar, Champollion, deciphered the scripts twenty years later. He was the first to understand the hieroglyphs since they fell out of use 1500 years earlier. With Penelope Wilson, Campbell Price and Richard Bruce Parkinson.
