Htiind Mathematical Papyrus. This is an issue of the plates prepared
by Dr. Birch thirty years ago, and now first published. Reviewed by
Griffith, Or. Litt. Zeit. ii. 116; cf. a note by Eisenlohr in defence of
his own publication of 1877 (an excellent and convenient edition), P. S. B. A.

New facsimiles of and commentary on the songs in the Harris Papyrus,
by Max Mu'ller, Die Liehespoesie der alten JEgypten (see below under

In Pec. de Trav. xxi. 7-1, Golexischeff publishes a complete tran-
scription into hieroglyphs and a translation of his famous papyrus contain-
ing the account of a voyage from Thebes to Phoenicia in the reigns of
Smendes and Herhor of the XXIst Dynasty. This publication is almost
as important philologically as historically, presenting as it does an instruc-
tive example of the late Egyptian language passing into demotic. A
Russian version with photograph of the first of the three pages was pub-
lished in 1897 in the Festschrift fur Baron Posen .- the entry regarding it
in the last Archaeological Report, p. 23, was not quite accurate.
