Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 182 Discussion and Permission

"I don't think it's a good idea for you to waste too much time digging in other areas." Professor Jacques, who went to Egypt with Liang En to find the Rosetta Stone last time, was a little puzzled by Liang En's recent actions.

"To be honest, if you devote yourself to ancient Egyptology, your contribution will be far greater than it is now. For example, if the book you edited could be published a month earlier, the world's Egyptology would be greatly improved. It will advance for a month."

"What you said is really exaggerated. After all, I just found a key before, and after I have this key, I think other people should be able to continue walking along this path."

"But none of them have your genius in this area." Professor Jacques said firmly. "No matter how much preparation you have made before, I don't think other people can compile such an ancient Egyptian dictionary in such a short period of time."

"For example, our experts at the Louvre used this dictionary to translate a large number of inscriptions and inscriptions as soon as they got it, and they didn't even find any mistakes in it."

Due to historical limitations, there were a few errors in the book of the same name compiled by Champollion.Although Liang En didn't know where the mistakes were, he successfully corrected them with the help of [Ciphertext Deciphering (R)] skill.

Different from the previous cracks, in this revision process, a legend point can translate significantly more articles than before. Obviously, this is because he has mastered most of the ancient Egyptian languages.

"I'm very happy to receive your compliment, Professor Jacques." Liang En said to the camera of the computer, "Especially this book has received such high praise from you."

Unlike before, Liang En put a lot of effort into this book, which was different from using Champollion's memories purely from his mind. Therefore, when he heard others praise him, he naturally had a different sense of pride and pride than before.

"But I don't think it's a bad thing to do research in other fields, at least it can change my mind." Liang En said, smiling at the camera.

"And the facts also tell me that what I did in other areas is not too bad. For example, this time I found the legendary Viking American colony Vinland, and I also cracked the secret of Greek fire in history."

"That's why I said you are a genius." Professor Jacques muttered depressingly, "For example, I spent my whole life studying ancient Egyptology, but my achievements are far inferior to yours."

Soon, the discussion came to the end. At this time, Dr. Louis, the curator of the Egyptian Museum of the Louvre, also went online and brought a very good news to everyone.

"The Egyptians have now opened up the qualifications for scientific examinations in the Sinai Peninsula." As soon as he went online, Dr. Louis showed an excited look. "It's the first batch of permits since the 50s."

"Sinai Peninsula, is that place safe now?" As soon as Dr. Louis finished speaking, Professor Jacques asked directly. "You know, a lot of the previous news about that place was about the explosion, the attack."

"Safety can't be guaranteed. Although the place is generally safe, it's hard to say about certain places." Dr. Louis said with a serious face.

"However, because of this reason, it is much less difficult to apply for an archaeological excavation permit than under normal circumstances. Therefore, it is up to everyone to decide how to do it."

Naturally, not all applicants for this type of permission are granted.Dr. Louis said this because his back is against the Louvre Museum, so there is a way to apply through the channels of the Louvre Museum.

As for Liang En, in addition to being able to obtain permission through the Louvre, he himself can also apply in his personal capacity.

This is mainly because after the Rosetta Stone was unearthed last time, Liang En was awarded the First Class Republic Medal and Honorary Citizenship of Egypt.With these things, it will not be difficult to apply for a license.

After everyone logged out, Liang En also logged out, and then began to think about the scientific expedition in the Sinai Peninsula.To be honest, for archaeology, the opening of the Sinai Peninsula is indeed good news.

Because of the blockade that lasted for half a century and the various chaos caused by the war, the various relics in the entire area were not damaged much in the previous half century.

The reason for this is that, except for a few relics on the Sinai Peninsula, most of the relics are located in those deserted Gobi or mountainous areas.Most of the reasons for being abandoned are due to the lack of water necessary for survival.

Whether ancient or modern, water is the cornerstone of existence.Therefore, there are basically no human settlements in places that lack water, and the previous wars will naturally not spread to those ruins.

Even those cultural relic thieves are not very willing to enter this area. After all, the cultural relics here are not unique, so they can go to Egypt to obtain these items, and there is no need to risk their lives to enter the Sinai Peninsula.

Taking into account the fact that various illegal excavations were rampant due to the advancement of technology after World War II, the remaining cultural relics and historic sites in the Sinai Peninsula naturally have a strong attraction.

However, considering that the fighting in this area has just ceased, it is not known how many dangerous explosives and landmines exist, so it is a relatively risky thing to enter this area for excavation work.

However, after simply weighing the pros and cons, Liang En decided to spend 1 euros to apply for an archaeological permit from the Egyptian side.After all, such an archaeological permit can be used for five years, so applying for one in advance will always be used.

It's just that with the efficiency of Egypt, it may take three to four months to obtain approval after such an application is submitted.Therefore, Liang En naturally had to find something else to do during this period of time.

One of the tasks is naturally to compile the "Dictionary of Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphics" based on Champollion's memory and his own research, but unlike the previous book, it takes a long time to complete this type of dictionary.

Although it is said that after having Shang Boliang's memory, Liang En was able to move out the things in his memory in a short time.However, it also takes a lot of time and energy to verify the original content based on modern archaeological results and card skills.

Besides, it would take a lot of time for any normal person to write a reference book like a dictionary.Therefore, Liang En himself is not suitable to take out this dictionary in a short time.

According to his analysis, in the next two or three years, his best plan is to throw out some dictionary content every once in a while, and even some controversial knowledge points.Wait until the end to come up with the finished product.

Although it will take some time to come up with the final work, it doesn't take too long to retell the version written by Champollion in my impression.

Especially if you want to modify it, it is obviously more convenient to have a template in hand than to recall it from your mind.This also gave Liang En the motivation to code.

So for the next three days, Liang En stayed in his room and worked hard to code, until a phone call from the Philippines interrupted his work.
