(For ail particulars see text). 
PLATE L 
Fig. 1. Liver, drawn exactly natural size, from actual measurements. The liver is folded upon itself 
and contains in the cavity so formed a statuette of the human-headed «Amset». 
Fig. 2. Liver (drawn exactly to scale) seen in profile. 
PLATE n. 
Fig. 1. Part of stomach, drawn natural size. Tt was packed in saw-dust. 
Fig. 2. Stomach. Fracture sliowiiig resinous surface, though it contained no resin. 
Fig. 3. Fractured surface of skin of chest and subjacent muscle. Tt has a resinous appearance, though it 
contained no resin whatever. 
Fig. 4. Roll of intestines. Drawn from measurement and reduced to size. It contains a small figure 
of the hawk-headed Kliebsennuf. 
PLATE III. 
Fig. 1. Lung, drawn natural size. The lung has been dried flat. 
Fig. 2 and 3. Heart drawn natural size. Anterior and posterior surfaces. 
PLATE IV. 
Fig. 1. Nerve of finger. Hipmatoxylin. The medullary slieath is well seen (Leitz Oc. Ix'/ia)- 
Fig. 2. Another section of nerve. Two axis-cylinders are seen. Same staining and magnification as 
preceding one. 
Fig. 3. Skin of finger. Sweat-glands are evident. Nuclei are seen also. Eosin. (Leitz. Loav power). 
Fig. 4. Kidney. The epithelium cells have been converted into a yellow homogeneous substance. 
Haematoxylin. (Leitz Oc. Ix'/is)- 
PLATE V. 
Fig. 1. Skin of finger. Hœmatoxylin. Notice how well the nuclei have been preserved. (Leitz 
Oc. lxV,5)- 
Fig. 2. Skin of chest. Notice contrast with preceding one, almost all the epithelium cells having dis- 
appeared. Some of the packing material is still adherent to the surface, a., packing material; 
b., corium ; b., subcutaneous tissue. Hœmatoxylin. (Leitz. Low power). 
Fig. 3. Skin of finger. Transverse section of sweat-glands. Nuclei still visible. (Leitz Oc. IxVis)- 
Fig. 4. Epidermic cells of the skin floated off after maceration. Hfematoxylin. Leitz Oc. lxVi-2) 
Fig. 5. Section through a nerve. (Low power.) 
Fig. 6. From the subcutaneous tissue of a body (not mummified but dried in the sand) about 8000 B. C. 
No anatomical structure recognisable except unclear masses staining with hœmatoxylin (Nuclei). 
(Leitz Oc. IxVtî)- 
Fig. 7. Subcutaneous tissue of mammary gland. Ha-matoxylin. (Leitz Oc. 1 X Vis)- 
The ligures are from mummies of the XXIst dynasty, unless otherwise staled.
