Put this into your own words The Rosetta Stone is a slab of written stone found on 15 July 1799 in Rosetta, in northern Egypt. It is an incomplete piece of black basalt stone that contains a statement made by king Ptolemy V in both Greek and Egyptian languages.

Its importance lies in the fact that it was the piece of information that allowed linguists to decipher the meaning of the hieroglyphic writing of ancient Egypt, since being also written in Greek (a language known by these), it allowed to carry out a cross translation between these languages.
