Epigraphy is the study of scripts, inscriptions, and alphabets or glyphs, or other writing systems. Languages can be conveyed in a variety of writing systems so that the same language can be written in many different ways. The Rosetta stone has three inscriptions, two in Egyptian and one in Greek, but each is in a different writing system and carries the same information. This made it possible to decipher the written languages of ancient Egypt.
