Welcome to Magellan 7 Rosetta Stone!  

     The 1799 discovery and subsequent deciphering of the Rosetta Stone was the key to moderns understanding the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Similarly, this Magellan 7 Rosetta Stone will serve as our key to gaining a greater understanding of the people and places of Africa, Asia, and Australia. Not only will we discover and decipher information, we will be the creators of this stone!
