Curiosity about the language spoken in ancient Egypt provides an insight into their culture. The last stage of the ancient Egyptian language, known as Coptic, was transcribed using Greek letters, enabling researchers to reconstruct how the ancient Egyptians might have sounded. Interestingly, popular culture has caught onto this connection by incorporating themes of ancient Egyptian life into films like The Mummy, where the character Imhotep is referenced as the architect of Egypt's first pyramid.
