1901, chiefly at the viith pylon, Annates, ii. 265 ; Maspero following with
notes on statues of a new king of the Xlllth Dynasty and of Amenhotep,
son of Hapu, ib. 281. Further, the excavations in 1901-2 at the viith and
viiith pylons, finding remains of a temple of Usertesen I., showing work of
Amenhotep I. and Thothmes II., two metres below the level of the pavement
of Thothmes III.; the last king therefore, with Hatshepsut, must have
overthrown the ancient edifice to build on its ruins, the change being-
necessitated by the rise in the level of the Nile-bed. The discovery opens
up a prospect of an infinity of early monuments below the present temple.
Legrain's report, which also deals with the consolidation of the temple of
Kameses III. and the hypostyle hail, is illustrated by photographs of flint
implements as well as of the statues and sculptures. Ann. iv. 1.
