1822

In 1822, the Rosetta Stone is translated by British scientist Thomas Young and French scholar Jean-François Champollion, gaining an understanding of Egyptian heiroglyphics.

Centuries later, despite faulty and limited data on Earth's history, the terrans of the Koprulu Sector retain knowledge of the event. Champollion and his possession of the Rosetta Stone would be a source of great frustration to terran archeologist Jake Ramsey when faced with indecipherable protoss text.
