In syllabic transcription, the list reads :
1. Nç-he-rï-n(aT), Northern Syria. 2. He-tà, Hittite country, west of 1.
3. 'A-ra-(sa), Cyprus, cuneiform Alasia. 4. (Sa)-n-ge-(ra), Singara in Northern
Mesopotamia. 6. Ke-f-ti (i. e. to), originally, the coast of Asia Minor. 7. K-(ïra-
ka-mi-sa) on the Euphrates. 8. Tu-ne-(p), probably in the lower Orontes-valley.
9. Kad-s, the capital of the Amorîtes on the upper Orontes. 10. 'A-kà (i. e. ko)-
r(ï-t), the Ugarrtt of the Amarna tablets. 11. Kad-ï-n(a) (read Kode " circle"), the
coast of Northern Phœnicia. 12. I suppose Ti-hï-sï, the usual associate of Kades.
Read | ti instead of the ha ^ whiçh Prof. Sayce believed to see? 14. Prof. Sayce
adds in his letter " perhaps Mannus". It seems to me, the arrangement of the signs
makes tins reading rather improbable. Perhaps (U)-nu-(g)^ 15. Ti-y-{ta), unknown,
see below. 16. 'A-(ra-t-tu^), Arvad, Aradus? — The rest efîaced.
It seems évident that the artists of Ramses II compiled their list from the columns
of Amenhotp III in Semneh, L., D., III, 88 g, etc.; a common source is far less pro-
bable. There, we find the same uncommon orthography : Kad-ï-na, and our Nro. 15,
written in full ~| ( ( (a name with which I cannot do anything)1. Nevertheless, the
new list is not destit'ute of interest and Prof. Sayce deserves our gratitude for having
copied thèse fragments. I thank him personally for his amiable communication.
