Effective Research
Remember: The secret of effective
research, is to target relevant search words.
...and try different combinations.
For example - If you type in Google the words: [ Rosetta stone Egypt ] , you will get some good general information sites on the Rosetta stone.
But if you add a word, and type:[ Rosetta stone heritage Egypt ], you will get excellent current articles, discussing the recent developments and arguments around this issue of where these priceless treasures from antiquity should reside.
Happy hunting!
