variou.s Genii is by no means identical with that suggested by 
Pettigrew. Thus the hiiman Amset is usually found wrapped 
up in the liver instead o£ the stomach and large intestines, the 
Ape-headed Hapi is usually associated with the left lung rather 
than the small intestines, the Jackal Tuamâutef wiûi the stomach 
and not with the heart and lungs and the Hawk-headed Kehhsenuf 
is usually enclosed in the parcel o£ intestines instead o£ the liver. 
Even i£ we admit the possibility that the organs were put back 
carelessly and that as pure chance or as the resuit o£ the routine 
practice o£ a particular school of workmen the Genii became 
associated with a definite set o£ organs différent to that originally 
intended, this cannot be the whole explanation. For there could 
have been no mistake in the case o£ the heart. It was deliberately 
le£t in the thorax in every case : it was never wrapped in a parcel 
like the other viscera and it was never associated with any o£ 
the Genii, not even with T'uamâutef\ as Pettigrew's list requires. 
In about 50 % o£ the mummies examined no £uneraiy figures 
were found. In many cases this was no doubt due to the damage 
inflicted on the mummies and the disturbance o£ the body's 
contents be£ore they came into my possession ; but in a considér- 
able number o£ instances no Genii had l)een put in the body. 
This was the case in the miimmies o£ two children— one newly 
born and the other a girl o£ 8 years — as well as in many adults 
o£ both sexes. In many others either the wax figures were so 
distorted or the viscera so ill-preserved, or both, that it was not 
possible to identily them and détermine the association o£ Genii 
and viscera. In several other examples I have not opened the 
body cavity in order to avoid destroying certain £orms o£ packing 
o£ the more superficial parts. It thus happens that from a séries 
o£ nearly fi£ty mummies of this period I am able to make a 
statement o£ the relationship of the Genii and the viscera in only 
fifteen cases.
