EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous discovery in the field of archaeology at Philae, Egypt. In 1858, explorer Salt stumbled upon a duplicate of the famous Rosetta inscription within a temple at Philae. Despite being badly defaced and overwritten with other hieroglyphics, this find shed new light on the history and culture of ancient Egypt.
The intricate stone carvings and hieroglyphics depicted in the image offer a glimpse into the rich historical significance of Philae as a sacred site for worship and ritual practices. The meticulous detail preserved in this photograph allows viewers to appreciate the craftsmanship and artistry of ancient Egyptian civilizations.
As we marvel at this archaeological treasure unearthed by Salt over a century ago, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by those who once inhabited these sacred grounds. The juxtaposition of the original Rosetta inscription with later additions speaks to the layers of history that have shaped our understanding of this enigmatic civilization.
Through images like this one from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the wonders of ancient Egypt and its profound impact on modern society.
