ENABLING "LITERACY FOR MILLENNIA (sm)":
The FELICITY STONE (sm) is designed as the "Rosetta Stone" of our era. Located at the center of the eight granite monuments of the History of Humanity, this new (2009) structure will assist visitors of the distant future in deciphering our present languages, and thus read our history.
It emulates the Rosetta Stone which allowed 19th century scholars to decipher the then lost language of Egyptian hieroglyphs, written three thousand years earlier.
A sterling array of scholars, some in distant lands, are assisting the Museum of History in Granite at Felicity as it copes with the considerable intellectual challenge of writing the text.
