Question

What's the answer: "As he thought about the hieroglyphs in Thothmes' and Ramesses' names, Champollion realized their significance. It went far beyond the names themselves and gave him an insight into the entire system of hieroglyphic writing. For the names revealed that hieroglyphs were not simply representations of sounds. Nor did they have an exclusively symbolic meaning, as Thomas Young and other scholars had long believed. Instead, they were a combination of the two." Which central idea do the details from this paragraph support?
A: Champollion came to understand that the hieroglyphs were both symbols and sounds.

C: Champollion was not the only scholar who understood the hieroglyphs.
