Absolutely. But the example given was Egyptian not English. While the date of Beowolf is argued over the 8th century seems to gather the majority of the votes. So going with that we are looking at a document which is 1,300 years old.
If you add 1,300 to 300 for the Rosetta Stone (being charitable and rounding off) you get 1,600 BC which is towards the end of the Second Intermediate Period. The Middle and Old Kingdoms and the First Intermediate period are out of reach. Its an amazing span of time.
