"The Rosetta Stone is just a mundane legal document..."

Looking at the English translation, it seems to be a resolution by the Egyptian priesthood in honor of the pharoah, citing all the commendable things he had done and those things the priesthood would be doing to accord him his proper recognition. Some might describe it as lavish and extravagant, rather than mundane.
