- Video about the Rosetta Stone and the Georgia Guidestones
The Rosetta Stone (National Geographic, 2017), discovered in 1799, is known for providing the keys to translate the egyptian hieroglyphs, this by bringing the same inscription in three different languages (Saber es práctico, 2014), of which two, the ancient Greek and the demotic script, were known types of writing at the time and were the key to decipher the Egyptian, the linguists in charge of this task were Jean-François Champollion and Thomas Young.
The Georgia guidestones (Pijamasurf, 2010), also known as the American Stonehenge because of its arrangement similar to that structure, were built by someone unknown under the pseudonym R.C. Chistian in 1979. These stones (Candioti, 2008) are a set of modern stones that bring the same text written in eight languages (English, Spanish, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, Old Chinese and Russian) and a smaller text in four ancient languages (Babylonian cuneiform, Sanskrit, Egyptian hieroglyphics).
