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.

C. complete sentences began to appear on tomb inscriptions, along with lists of offerings to the Egyptian gods. Which answer choice best states a cause-and-effect relationship from the excerpt?
