Secrets of heiroglyphics

Jean-Francois Champollion


At Friday afternoon , in Advance top math . We watch a movie about secrets of hieroglyphics and Egypt. We were asked to take at least 10 facts from the movie. The movie was pretty good. i have learned the there was only one guy who can understand hieroglyphics back in 1822. That mans name is
Jean-François Champollion. He later on became famous for his work and knowledge. He lead 6 artist to record any pictures they could find in Egypt. He had a pretty good adventure. He later on found out that he was becoming older and weaker. Knowing that , he shared his knowledge to the six artist that accompanied him on his journey. He sadly died of a heart attack. Some people still remembers him up to this day. The movie was pretty good and educational. It was a good way to end the class.
