Allegedly he gave two newborn babies to a shepherd, with the instructions that no one should speak to them, but that the shepherd should feed and care for them while listening to determine their first words. The hypothesis was that the first word would be uttered in the root language of all people. When one of the children cried "βεκός" (bekós) with outstretched arms, the shepherd reported this to Psammetichus, who concluded that the word was <a href="/wiki/Phrygian_language" title="Phrygian language">Phrygian</a> because that was the sound of the Phrygian word for "bread". Thus, they concluded that the <a href="/wiki/Phrygians" title="Phrygians">Phrygians</a> were an older people than the Egyptians, and that Phrygian was the original language of men.
