240 THE SHEPHERD KINGS OF EGYPT. 



mysteries, and tliose of the Egyptian funereal ritual, are tlie same-. 

 Pococke has also with great wisdom associated the family of Bnddha 

 with the history of Troy or Ilium — a connection which has already 

 appeared in the very names of Jehaleleel and his sons. But still 

 more convincing are the facts that the son of Buddha is Aila or 

 Paruravas (IsFilus or Phl-uron, Jehaleleel or Aroeris), and that he, 

 with his wife Ila, rules the Cabiri, as we have found Thoth or 

 Taautus doing. Akuli, the Asura priest, may be Jehaleleel, who . 

 gave his name to Nagara or Jellalabad, and similarly named places. 

 He is also the Salsala (Silsilis) whose statue accompanied that of his 

 father Shahama, so celebrated among the Buddhists. From his 

 town, Pelusium, came the Indian Pelasa, the Pali language, and the 

 Pallis or shepherds who conquered Egypt. He is also Poulastya or 

 Pluto, the same as Plutus (Philitis and Philistine), who is united 

 with Cuvera or Hepher at Kailasa. Pococke finds Ziph or Typhon 

 in Thibet, a Buddhist region. Cophes and the Sibae, with Massogis 

 for Mesha the father of Ziph, and a host of similar names, ancient 

 and modern, attest the presence of the descendants of Jehaleleel in 

 western India. Casyapa, a well-known name in Indian story, is 

 likewise a memorialof Ziph, who is also Capesa or Capeyanas, that 

 dwelt appropriately in Jwalamucha, and whose story is that of 

 Cepheus the son of Belus. Anupa, Kusa, Marisa and a large number 

 of connected names give us Antib, Coz, Mareshah and allthat family, 

 with Manu for Ammon. All the members of the line of Achuzam- 

 are to be found in Sanskrit mythology — often confused, but frequently 

 arranged in harmonious order, according to the scheme set forth in 

 the Egyptian connection. 



Pococke, to whose partial yet exceedingly valuable compai'isons I 

 owe much, has united the Cabiri with Cuvera and Khyber. We 

 have already seen that the Yakshas are associated with him, and that 

 he has a .still more intimate u.nion with the Kinnaras, who are of 

 Kenaz the son of Hepher. G-anesa., Kansa and Chandra are names 

 given to Kenaz in the Indian mythology. Dasaprayavadi, father of 

 Ganesa, is a much supplemented form of Hepher, and Pouroo, father 

 of Kansa and son of Buddha (this is making Buddha Ptah Sokkari 

 or Ashchur of Tekoa), is an equally abbreviated one. The Prajapati 

 Sthanu and the region of Sthanutirtha commemorate Othniel. In 

 Babbhru, one of the Indian Typhon line associated with Setu and 

 other easily recognizable Ashchurites, we fijid Hepher. This latter
