including three commemorating the kings Uazkare and Hakare-Antef.
In Lord Carnarvon's Five Years' Explorations at Thebes a very
important and almost contemporary text referring to the Theban war
against the Hyksos is published with translation by Griffith, and letters,
etc., of about the same age with comments by Moller.
Demotic.
Professor Spiegelberg's principal publication for the year is not inferior
