Morphology
unexcelled = excelled (transparent) = un + excel + ed
The prefix 'un-' clearly negates the adjective 'excelled', indicating something that has not been surpassed.
Etymology
Unexcelled breaks into un- meaning 'not' and excel meaning 'to be better than' or 'to rise above'. So unexcelled means 'not surpassed', the very best and not outdone by anyone.
