It is an [[Egypt]]ian writing made in 196 BC which inscribes the same message in [[hieroglyphics]], demotic and [[Greek]].  When it was found in AD 1779, it enabled the translation of hieroglyphics for the first time.  The hieroglyphics were first deciphered by [[Jean-Francois Champollion]] in 1822. "The Rosetta Stone is written in three scripts because when it was written, there were three scripts being used in Egypt." [http://www.ancientegypt.co.uk/writing/rosetta.html The Rosetta Stone]
