This series of igo Photographs of the various races
conquered or visited by the Egyptians, has been taken by
Mr. Flinders Petrie from the monuments in 1887, with the
assistance of a grant from the British Association. It is now
available for students at the cost price of printing copies. Ap-
plications should be made for prints to Mr. R. V. Harman,
75 High Street, Bromley, Kent. If a selection is wanted, a set
will be sent, any of which can be detached from the titled sheets
by the purchaser, at 2s. 3d. per dozen ; those not required should
be at once returned in the sheets to Mr. Harman, with the re-
miitance for those kept. If a whole set is wanted, it will be sent
pasted on sheets of parchment paper, with printed titles, on
receipt of 45s., postage included. With each whole set, a copy
of Mr. Petrie's report and Mr. Tomkins' paper on the
geographical identifications, will be sent if requested, so far as the
number of copies allowed by the British Association will permit.
The Photographs are mainly from plaster casts, and are
therefore far clearer than if directly from the stone. Each has
the ancient name; from the hieroglyphs, and the modern equiva-
lent, so far as the names can be identified. The situation of each
sculpture is stated in the report. All are of the XlXth dynasty,
and at Thebes, unless stated otherwise in the titles. Where an
interrogation is put, either the ancient name is not expressly
stated, but is inferred from similar sculptors, or else the modern
name is not a certain identification. Where there are various
theories on the identifications, the least unlikely has been adopted
without any wish to assert its probable truth. The order of
arrangement is such as to bring together the various peoples
who have resemblances worthy of notice, such as the Punites
and Philistines, (Poeni) ; the Tahennu, Hanebu, and Thuirsha ;
the Derdeni and Amorites, &c, subject of course to placing
those of one name together. ,
