PREFACE.
In a restoration of this kind, much is left to conjecture in regard to the position
of the Mocks, particularly when all the neighbouring ones are wanting ; however, 1
believe that there cannot be much doubt as to the general form of the edifice. It is
quite similar to the gateway at Soleb, where inscriptions referring to the same festival
were engraved.
All the linear plates of this volume have been drawn by Madame Naville, and
printed by the firm of Thevoz and Co., in Geneva, who also executed the phototypes
from negatives taken by Count d'Hulst and the Rev. W. MacGregor. I have to
thank my friend, the Rev. W. MacGregor, for revising the text for the press.
This memoir exhausts all the objects discovered in the great temple of Bubastis,
from which I part with regret, remembering the rich reward which it has given to the
labours of its explorers.
