The Rosetta Stone The
Rosetta Stone, a fragment of a stele, found near the town of Rashid (Rosetta) in the Nile Delta by a French soldier
of Napoleon's expeditionary force to Egypt in 1799. The
fragment had part of a decree issued for the Egyptian Pharoah Ptolemy V during the Hellenistic Period in Ptolemaic
Egypt in 196 BC. Macedonians ruled Egypt from the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC to the death of Cleopatra VII
in 30 BC. The decree
is inscribed in two different languages, Ancient Egyptian and Ancient Greek, and three different scripts, Hieroglyphic, Ehyptian
Demotic and Greek. The
text at the top is in the Ancient Egyptian language (2690 BC - late 1600s AD) and written in hieroglyphs (3200 BC - c.
AD 400), the script of priests and religious documents. The
middle text is also in the Ancient Egyptian language but written in the Egyptian Demotic script (600s BC - 400s AD), the common
language and common script of the time. The text
at the bottom is in Ancient Greek (800s BC - 500s AD), the language and script of the Greek rulers and government
officials of Egypt. Knowledge of Ancient Greek allowed for the translation of the hieroglyphs. The

Imperator (Emperor)
A story about the Roman Emperor Otho (AD 32 - 16 April AD 69)
Marcus
Salvius Otho was the second of the four successive emperors in the eighteen months following the
death of the emperor Nero in AD 68. The emperor Nero was ousted in a revolt and committed suicide (9 June AD 68). Several vied to replace him as emperor. There were four
emperors in quick succession in AD 68 and AD 69 - Galba, Otho, Vitellius
and Vespasian. General
Galba, governor in Spain, joined a revolt against Nero in AD 68. At Nero's death, Galba was proclaimed emperor by
the armies and by the senate in Rome (9 June AD 68). Galba marched to Rome. The armies revolted against Galba
in January AD 69. General Otho in Rome toppled Galba. The Praetorian Guard and senate proclaimed Otho emperor
and Galba was killed on the same day (15 January AD 69). Vitellius, the Roman governor
in Germany, marched on Rome with his army. Otho marched north from Rome to confront
Vitellius. Otho was defeated in battle. Preferring to spare Romans further civil war, Otho committed suicide (16 April
AD 69). The senate in Rome proclaimed Vitellius emperor (16 April AD 69). General Vespasian,
commanding the Roman army putting down the Jewish revolt in Judea, was proclaimed emperor by the armies in Judea and Egypt (1 July AD 69). The
Roman armies in Europe also proclaimed Vespasian emperor and marched south on Rome. Vitellius marched north from Rome to confront
them. Vespasian's army marched north, met Vitellius and defeated him. Vitellius returned to Rome where Vespasian's soldiers
killed him (22 December AD 69). The senate proclaimed Vespasian, who was in Egypt, emperor. Titus Flavius Vespasianus reigned for ten years, till his death in AD 79. He founded a new dynasty,
known as the Flavian Dynasty, which ruled for 27 years (AD 69 AD - AD 96). He was succeeded by his two sons, Titus and Domitian. 2004 movie in Classic Latin with English sub-titles This upload runs 01:15:07)
