1 The above scheme of Egyptian Chro-
nology was published by me in the ‘ True
Priuciples of Beauty in Art,’ in 1849;
aud the data on which it was based were
detailed in the Appendix to tliat work.
As tliere seems to bc nothing in thc sub-

sequent researclies or discoveries whicli
at all iuvaliilates tlie reasoning on wliich
the table was founded, it is here repro-
duced in an abridged form as originally
set forth.
