THE SHEPHERD KINGS OF EGYPT.- 



of the so-called sixth dynasty and Amenemlie III. of the twelfths 

 Eileithyias may commemorate Laadah or Eldaah. The Shepherd 

 Rekamai, whose shield has been found at Lycopolis, is doubtless 

 Rekem, the grandson of Mareshali. Between lake Moeris and 

 Eileithyias several geographical names are found, which may probably 

 preserve those of Hebron and his descendants. I have also identified 

 pi"ovisionally the names of otlier Midianites with Egyptian localities. 

 The people of this family were expelled to Palestine together with their 

 allies of Moab, Ammon and Sheth, when the power of the Shepherds 

 was broken. The story of that expulsion, as it may be read in the 

 connection of Scripture- proper names with the records of antiquity, 

 I hope soon to be able to relate. In the meanwhile I have fulfilled 

 the task which I set out to accomplish, having given the families 

 and relationships of all the more important Pharaohs of the Mestrsean 

 or Shepherd line, which dispossessed the Horite stock of Shobal or 

 Seb of Egyptian sovereignty.*^ With the utmost confidence I place
