This picture taken on July 26, 2022 shows a close-up view of the cartouche of the Ptolemaic dynasty Pharaoh Ptolemy V "Epiphanes" inscribed with the rest of the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic text in the upper portion of the Rosetta Stone, on display at the British Museum in London. - The Rosetta Stone a basalt slab dating from 196 BC which bore extracts of a decree written in Ancient Greek, an ancient Egyptian vernacular script called Demotic, and hieroglyphics has been housed in the British Museum since 1802. The three scripts finally provided the code for unlocking the mysteries of hieroglyphs which had bedevilled historians for centuries. But the stone is on display with an explanation that it was "captured in Egypt by the British Army in 1801" from Napoleonic forces and was "presented by King George III" to the museum. - RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE - NO MARKETING NO ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS / RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE - NO MARKETING NO ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS Get premium, high resolution news photos at getty
