Between the time champollion's books appeared and the end of the nineteenth century, thousands of rolls of papyrus and copies of temple and tomb inscriptions were brought to europe and america. there scholars, using the deciphering methods champollion had pioneered, traced the entire history of writing in egypt. they discovered it had begun about 3100 b. c. when images of important people were first accompanied by hieroglyphs of their names or titles. by 2500 b. c. complete sentences began to appear on tomb inscriptions, along with lists of offerings to the egyptian gods. which statement best expresses an inference that can be supported by information in the excerpt? ancient egyptian writing became more complex over time. the only writing discovered from ancient egypt was written on tombs. only wealthy people had tomb inscriptions in ancient egypt. most of the egyptian writing that scholars translated was about egyptian gods.

Read the excerpt from a supporting opinion of the supreme court’s ruling in plessy v. ferguson, 1896. laws permitting, and even requiring, their separation in places where they are liable to be brought into contact do not necessarily imply the inferiority of either race to the other, and have been generally, if not universally, recognized as within the competency of the state legislatures in the exercise of their police power. how does this relate to the premises of brown v. board of education? the brown case addresses whether state legislatures are equipped to judge the quality of education offered at segregated schools. the brown case addresses whether authorities believe that one race is inferior to another when creating public schools. the brown case addresses whether these laws inherently deny certain citizens equal protection under the law. the brown case addresses the legality of using police power to monitor public places separated by race.
