inlaid with ivory, inscribed with the rarely found
prenomen and nomen of Rameses X., King of
Egypt about B.C. 1150. (13.) A hypocephalus
made for Shai-enen, the son of Nes-Nebt-het.
(14.) A collection of about eight hundred scarabs
and amulets from Abydos. (15.) A bronze
libation bucket made for Shashanq, the son of
Thehet-Tehuti. This fine specimen of bronze
work was probably a votive offering to the
deceased by his daughter Nit-aqert (Nitocris).
(16.) A blue glazed faience figure of Venus
Anadyomene. (17.) Alabaster vase of Pepi I.
King of Egypt about B.C. 3233, etc.
The number of Egyptian Antiquities pre-
served at Theobald's Park is about eighteen
hundred, and the proportion of first-rate objects
of interest is very considerable.
