The French Quarter, also known as the Vieux Carré, is the oldest neighborhood in the city of New Orleans. After New Orleans (La

Nouvelle-Orléans in French) was founded in 1718 by Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne de Bienville, the city developed around the Vieux Carré ("Old Square" in English), a central square. The district is more commonly called the French Quarter today, or simply "The Quarter," related to changes in the city with American immigration after the Louisiana Purchase. Most of the extant historic buildings were constructed either in the late 18th century, during the city's period of Spanish rule, or were built during the first half of the 19th century, after U.S. annexation and statehood. The district as a whole has been designated as a National Historic Landmark, with numerous contributing buildings that are separately deemed significant. It is a prime tourist destination in the city, as well as attracting local residents. Because of its distance from areas where the levee was breached during Hurricane Katrina in 2005 as well as the strength and height of the nearest Mississippi River Levees in contrast to other levees along the canals and lakefront, it suffered relatively light damage from floodwater as compared to other areas of the city and the greater region.

masya89 [10]

Answer:

c: Champollion was amazed after seeing Karnak

Explanation:

Jean-François Champollion was a French linguist most famous for his work on Ancient Egypt and for deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphics.

In this excerpt we can clearly see signs of deep admiration and fascination Champollion had towards Egyptian culture, society and especially architecture.

That can best be seen from his sentence: "No nation on earth, ancient or modern, has ever conceived architecture on so noble and vast a scale".

This diary entry suggests that he was extremly amazed at the sight of Karnak.
