First line
THE first decipherer who succeeded in assigning correct values to any of the Egyptian picture signs or hieroglyphics was Dr. Thomas Young, who already in 1818 had given to six characters values which are accepted at the present time; the values of three others were correctly stated as far as the consonants are concerned.
