The factory system is a method of manufacturing using machinery and division of labour. Because of the high capital cost of machinery and factory buildings, factories are typically owned by capitalists wmho employ the operative labour. Use of machinery with the division of labor reduced the required skill level of workers and also increased the output per worker.

The factory system was first adopted in Britain at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution in the late 18th century and later spread around the world.[1] It replaced the putting-out system. The main characteristic of the factory system is the use of machinery, originally powered by water or steam and later by electricity. Other characteristics of the system mostly derive from the use of machinery or economies of scale, the centralization of factories, and standardization of interchangeable parts.

Write an essay that analyzes how a text explains the sequence of events that affected the discovery of the Rosetta Stone
Reptile [31]

Answer:

The Rosetta Stone is a slab of written stone found on 15 July 1799 in Rosetta, in northern Egypt. It is an incomplete piece of black basalt stone that contains a statement made by king Ptolemy V in both Greek and Egyptian languages.

Its importance lies in the fact that it was the piece of information that allowed linguists to decipher the meaning of the hieroglyphic writing of ancient Egypt, since being also written in Greek (a language known by these), it allowed to carry out a cross translation between these languages. Thus, for the first time the meaning of the hieroglyphs could be transcribed, which later facilitated the acquisition of information regarding ancient Egypt.
