Why the Spider Has Long, Thin Legs
Long ago there lived a spider named Anansi who had eight short legs. He was always hungry.
One day he visited Rabbit's house. Rabbit was cooking wonderful-smelling greens. He invited Anansi to stay and eat, but Anansi wanted to try other animals' foods, too. Anansi decided to spin a web and tie his leg to the pot. When the greens were done, Rabbit would tug on the web to tell Anansi to come and eat.
Next, Anansi visited Monkey's home. Monkey was cooking beans. Anansi tied another leg to Monkey's pot. Now Monkey could tug on the web when the beans were ready.
On he went until he had visited eight friends and tied each of his eight legs to eight different pots. Suddenly, he felt a tug on one leg. Then he felt another, and another. Soon all eight legs were being tugged in different directions. Ouch! Anansi finally untied his legs, which were now stretched long and thin. He went home to rest, still hungry.

For a long time, historians faced a big issue when studying ancient Egyptian culture. No one knew how to read ancient Egyptian writing, which is called hieroglyphics. The answer to the puzzle came in 1799, when a soldier found a piece of rock called the Rosetta Stone. The Stone had a decree carved into it three times: once in hieroglyphics, once in ancient Greek, and once in another Egyptian writing system. Many people already knew how to read ancient Greek, so they used the text to figure out how to read the hieroglyphics.
