520 |a In 1798, Napoleon Bonaparte entered Egypt with an army and a brigade of savants, scientists, anthropologists, and historians. His aim was not just conquest on the banks of the Nile but the rediscovery of the ancient world after centuries of Ottoman rule. At the heart of this quest was a stone that was discovered in the small town of Rosetta that would offer the key to unlock the mysteries of ancient Egypt. Discovery at Rosetta tells the full story of how the English won the battle to claim the Stone and how it was then shipped to England.
