YBody of a man wh ojva s buried , in a shallow oval; grave Jiolhwed out of sandstone pop the west bank of the Nile, in UpperEgypjLJle-for- e burial the body was treated with a preparation of bitumen ,. and was airanged in the posture in which it now lies, on its left side, with the hanchi before thefaceaud --'the 'khCc;? drawn up nearly "on a level with the chin. The grave (which has .been roughly imitated by the model liei5e exhibited), was covered with slabs of im worked stone, and in.it beside the body were disposed flint knives and a number of vases partly filled with -the remarns-und dustof -- fxmeraf offerings. k The man probably belight longed to a haired race, which maybe regarded as one bf the aboriginal stocks of Egypt, whose . settlements are on - the west bank of - the-Ni- le. - The style of the flint implements found iu the grave indicates that the man lived in the -- Iaterneolithic period of --Egypt remote in that is, ages long before the rule ot Menes, the first histori. cal king of Egypt. The. grave was first seen bv a wandering Arab; he, reported his discovery to a British official, who immediately sent a couple of Egyptian soldiers, to guard it day and night, until it could be safely removed. The body is not a mummy of tli exordia ary historic Egyptian period, such as that of ltameses II., the father of the Pharaoh of tie Exodus. It was never bound up in linen or cased in any. painted coffin, but was merely coated with a preparation of bitumen, the Arabic word for which is murnia; hence our word mummy. To reach the period when this man hunted along the banks of the Nile it is necessary to travel backward in time through the modern period since Elizabeth, through medieval Europe, through the whole history of Rcftne and Greece, past the time of the earliest mummied king the museum. possesses, past evenearliest the.
