1 At p. 43 I have wrongly attributed this to Merenptah.
The head of Set was cut away and then probably replaced
by that of Osiris in stucco: the group now presents a curious
appearance.—E. L. G.

2 "With regard to M. Naville's ingenious comparison of
Bubastis Agria with the name ntr skid (p. 23), it may be
pointed out that a more natural interpretation of the first
would be " the fierce Bast," a term by which the Greeks,
familiar with the mild goddess of Bubastis, designated the
avenging goddess Sekhet; and "the divine inhabitant of the
meadows of the god" is not improbable for the second.
The two expressions have, at least on this view, little in
common.—F. L. G.
