Why wasn't Meroitic translated using the Rosetta stone?

Meroitic wasn't translated using the Rosetta Stone because the Stone primarily features Greek and Egyptian hieroglyphs, which do not directly correspond to the Meroitic script. The Meroitic language, used in the Kingdom of Meroë (now Sudan), has its own unique scripts—hieroglyphic and cursive—that lack a direct bilingual counterpart like those found on the Rosetta Stone. Additionally, the Meroitic script was not well understood or widely studied until much later, complicating efforts for translation. As a result, scholars had to rely on other methods, including comparative analysis with known languages and scripts, to decipher Meroitic.
