PREFACE.

Toe following chapters contain, with large additions, notes, and
references, the substance of a course of lectures on ancient Egyptian
subjects recently delivered in the United States of America. "While
necessarily recasting the form of these lectures, I have to some ex-
tent preserved the colloquial style—in the hope, I confess, of being
the better remembered by those who have heard them.

For permission to reproduce various illustrations from the works
of Professor Maspero, MM. Perrot and Chipiez, Sir John Lubbock,
and Mr. W. M. F. Petrie, I have to offer my grateful acknowledgments
to Messrs. Grevel & Co., Chapman & Hall, Longmans, Williams &
Norgate, and the Committee of the Egypt Exploration Fund.

The reproductions from Mr. W. M. F. Petrie's series of original
photographs are executed by special arrangement with Mr. Petrie.
