HMS Egyptienne (1799) : ウィキペディア英語版 | French frigate Égyptienne (1799)
} |} ''Égyptienne'' was a French frigate launched at Toulon in 1799. Her first service was in Napoleon's Egyptian campaign of 1801, in which the British captured her at Alexandria. She famously carried the Rosetta Stone to Woolwich, and then the Admiralty commissioned her into the Royal Navy as the 40-gun fifth-rate frigate HMS ''Egyptienne''. She served in a number of single-ship actions before being reduced to harbour service in 1807, and was sold for breaking in 1817. ==Design and construction== ''Égyptienne'' was part of the two-ship ''Forte''-class of frigates designed by François Caro. She had possibly been ordered on 15 June 1798 as a 74-gun ship-of-the-line of about 1,700 French tons, or 1900 English tons (the evidence is ambiguous).〔 She was begun at Toulon on 26 September 1798 but while building she was modified into a heavy frigate based on the ''Forte''. She was launched 17 July 1799, put into service in November 1799 and armed at Toulon on 23 September 1800. The foremost maindeck port was found too curved in the bow to admit a gun, so ''Égyptienne'' received only 48 cannon instead of 50.〔Roche (2005).〕
