The name of king Sebakhotep II. of the Thirteenth dynasty, occurs on a large

 the order of succession in the chamber of kings at Karnak (Leps. k. pi. 14 and 15). 



" 1977 B. C. = 4th year of Pou-kiang" (Chinese chron. table), beginning of the 

 Twelfth cycle. 



1976 B. C. (= 1 5 r S — f- "458 years " of Berosus in Alex. Polyhist, and Euseb. i. 4), at Babylon, 

 accession of the Second Chaldean dynasty : — a series of "forty-nine " successive kings. 



The name of king Sebakhotep III. of the Thirteenth dynasty, occurs among the 

 ruins at Abydos (Glid. analect.), and on a colossal statue of himself (now in the 

 museum at Paris). — His title is next in the order of succession in the chamber of 

 kings at Karnak. 



Anebus succeeded by Arbelus, great grandfather of Ninus and fourth king of the 

 Assyrians (Abyden. in Euseb.). 



In ascending the Nile beyond Philae, the first sculptures in Nubia belonging to the Thirteenth 

 (hmsty are on the island of Argo (Leps. eg. and sin. p 19 and 233). 

 Seventieth generation. May 1st, 1967, mostly beyond youth : 



The name or title of a king of th/s Thirteenth dynasty — has been obliterated in this place 

 in the chamber of kings at Karnak (Leps. k. pi. 15). 



Arbelus succeeded by Chaalus, grandfather of Ninus and fifth king of the Assyrians — 

 (Abyden. in Euseb.). 



The name of king Sebakhotep IV. of the Thirteenth dynasty, occurs among the 

 ruins at Abydos (Glid. analect.). — And an obliterated title occurs in his place in the 

 chamber of kings at Karnak (Leps. k. pi. 14 and 15). 



Some time after the "Twelfth" dynasty (Leps. eg. and sin. 28, and 118), a new 

 canon of proportions for the human figure substituted in the Egyptian sculptures. — 

 This second rule or canon continued unchanged until the time of the Psammetichi. 



The name of king Sebakhotep V. occurs on a granite altar at Abydos (Glid. ana- 

 lect ) : — and his title is next in the order of succession in the chamber at Karnak. 

 Seventy-first generation. Sept. rst, 1934, mostly beyond youth : 

 193 1 B. C. (= 1413 -f- " 518 yrs " of the Afr.-Maneth. table), possible date of the 

 accession of the Fourteenth dynasty. 



The partly erased title of a king of the Fourteenth dynasty occurring on contempo- 

 raneous monuments — is possibly identical with No. 227 (Leps. k. pi. 15) in the 

 chamber of kings at Karnak, next in the order of succession. 



As early perhaps as this date (Graha Munjari tables, and Bentley as. res. viii. p.

 " 1917 B. C. = 5th year of Kioung " (Chinese chron. table), beginning of the Thirteenth cycle. 

 1914 B. C. (= 2016 — - " 100 — 2 years," Gen. xi. 10), Arphaxad. Beginning of Hebrew lineage 

 and history. 



The same year (= 1862 -(- "52 years" of Cephalion, Euseb. i. and ii., and Syncell., see also 

 Abyden.), the date attributed to Ninus ; but according to the limit of probability agreeing better with 

 the accession of his father Arbelus II., sixth king of the Assyrians. — From this date, the extant List 

 of Assyrian kings, as seen by Cephalion, contained " no reign of less than twenty years ; " and would 

 seem therefore to be genealogical. In fact, Berosus makes his period of " 526 years " occupied by 

 "forty-five" Assyrian reigns, where Eusebius has scarcely more than eighteen. 



The title of a king of the Fourteenth dynasty not found on contemporaneous mon- 

 uments, — is next in the order of succession in the chamber of kin^s at Karnak. 



The sepulchral vases having the form of " the Four genii of the dead," first used
