Read the excerpt from "Bone Detective," by Lorraine
Jean Hopping.


Diane made a rubber silicone mold of the impression.
Then, she made a sturdy wax cast of the mold and sent
it to a metalworks company. The foundry workers
coated the wax mold with plaster and put it in an
industrial oven. The wax melted off, leaving a plaster
shell. The workers poured melted bronze into the shell,
and the metal cooled and hardened into a bronze tiger
tongue.
Diane's casts of the tongue and paw allowed zoo
visitors to share her amazing experience. People felt
the roughness of the big cat's tongue and spread a
hand inside the palm of its giant paw. This, she
decided, was one of the coolest things I have ever
done. She savored the moment, knowing that far
graver matters were always just a phone call away.

Read the excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone by James Cross Giblin.

Some of these scholars made otherwise significant contributions to the world's knowledge of ancient Egypt. A German priest of the 1600s, Athanasius Kircher, wrote the first grammar and vocabulary of Coptic, the language of Christian Egypt. These books were to prove of great value when the hieroglyphs were eventually deciphered.

But Kircher's ideas about the hieroglyphs themselves were even farther off the mark than those of Horapollo. Looking at a certain group of symbols—which actually stood for the name of a pharaoh—Kircher let his imagination run wild. Without any evidence to support him, he said that the hieroglyphs meant "The blessings of the god Osiris are to be procured by means of sacred ceremonies, in order that the benefits of the river Nile may be obtained."

Which sentence from this excerpt contains evidence that supports the claim?
