The Carnegie Institution of Washington has published a second volume
of W. Max Muller's Egyptological Researches, containing the results of a
journey to Egypt in 1906. It is entirely occupied by texts and representa-
tions concerning the foreigners of Europe, Asia, and Africa; tribute bearers
from the tombs of Menkheperre-senb and Amunezeh; and lists of conquered
cities dating from the XVIIIth Dynasty down to the Ptolemaic age, with
commentaries and excursuses. It is interesting to have the present
opinions of the author of the well-known Asien mid Europa in den
aegyptischen Inschriften on so many matters connected with his special
studies.

Daressy describes the enamelled decorations of doorways of the age of

are represented with typical features and costumes, and are classified as
Hittites, Semites with full or small beard, Libyans, Meshwesh, Temhu,
Shakalsh, Philistines, Tursha, negroes with aprons or with full robes.
