Sip your favorite beverage and read an ancient text! Our Rosetta Stone ceramic mug is adapted from the famous Rosetta Stone inscribed with a royal decree of Pharaoh Ptolemy V (c. 196 BC). An excerpt is printed in English on the mug: "King Ptolemy, the beloved of Ptah...the gods have given him health, victory, and power, and all other good things". The three scripts contained the same text, allowing Egyptian hieroglyphs to be translated by French archaeologist, Jean-Francois Champollion. Licensed from the British Museum, made from bone china, dishwasher safe.
