The leaders of the expedition were Jean-Franois Champollion, the man who deciphered the hieroglyphs using the Rosetta Stone, and Ippolito Rosellini.
Born in Pisa in 1800, Rosellini was noted for his study of the monuments, deciphering of the hieroglyphs and, above all, for his contribution to science in the form of his illustrated work, The Monuments of Egypt and Nubia.
Unlike the Napoleonic Commission, the Franco-Tuscan expedition was able to take advantage of the understanding of hieroglyphic script and therefore examine the antiquities more systematically.

 JULY 19th -- Timing & Trends
Two decades later, French Egyptologist Jean Franois Champollion was able to decipher the hieroglyphics using his knowledge of Greek as a guide, and the language and culture of ancient Egypt was suddenly open to scientists as never before.
The artifact thus held the key to solving the riddle of hieroglyphics, a written language that had been 'dead' for nearly two millennia.

Jean-Franois Champollion, Pris du systme hieroglyphique des anciens gyptiens, 2 vols.
In 1824, Champollion had used an equivalent term, "tachygraphie," in his landmark Pris du systme hieroglyphique des anciens gyptiens (a copy of which Anthon owned),2 to describe hieratic Egyptian script.
In June 1827, this book was reviewed in the American Quarterly Review, calling hieratic Egyptian script "short-hand" Egyptian.3 Anthon knew this review: He owned a copy and he cited it in his Classical Dictionary.4 Anthon would have read this review only months before Harris's visit.

Less-importantly, Figeac is where Jean-Franois Champollion came from.
There'd been a free guided-tour of the town and the Champollion museum plus a free pasta party the day before, but I had mine at mum-in-law's instead :-) There were 8 aid stations, with glucose drink, plain mineral water, spice bread, sugar lumps, orange, dried fruit and smiling-despite-the-freezing-cold-weather volunteers.
The race is held in the town, 160km from home, where my wife was born, went to school, caught glandular fever etc and where we were married.
