already alluded to. 
Examination of it shows that it is broadly divided into two por¬ 
tions, by the leaf resting on it; and the linear measures of the two 
rectangles thus formed are respectively, the northern one—

roughly divided into f and fids of No. of days in a year. 
The perimeter of the chamber at the ceiling (363 inches) had 
pointed out the probability of our finding some of the external pro¬ 
portions ~of the pyramid repeated here ; and as there we find the 
“year"’ in terms of 4 cubits, or 100 inches, so here we have a “year '’ 
of inches; and as there the grander and external year is intimately 
connected with the height of the pyramid through ?r, so here we 
find, through the same medium, a connection with the length of 
the chamber, a mean of three measures of which gives 116-32 for 
its length in pyramid inches, for taking 365-24 as circumference, 
diameter = 116-26.
