This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1862 Excerpt: ... On the back is a dedication " to Osiris and to Neith the great mother-goddess and queen of Sais," in two imperfect lines of hieroglyphics. The hieroglyphics are published in Egypt. Inscript., Second Series, PI. 40 E. No. 492. The Head of a small Statue, of highly polished black basalt, without beard. It has no name or hieroglyphics, but is of the same age as the last two. It was under Psammetichus and his successors, the kings of Sais, that the quarries of basalt were first worked. During their reigns we meet with a great number of monuments of this hard stone, which are all beautifully polished. No. 492 bis. The Head and Bust of another small Statue, of basalt, like the above. On the shelves against the wall are numerous jars, with lids formed with heads. (See Fig. 49.) These were always used in sets of four, and named after the four lesser gods of the dead; and they held those parts of the body which were too soft to be made into a mummy. Their lids are in the shape of heads characteristic of those gods:--Amset, the carpenter, has a man's head; Smotef, the shaper, or Sontef, the painter, has a dog's head; Snouf, the bleeder, has a hawk's head; and Hapi, the digger, has an ape's head. But as the lids are loose from the jars, the name did not always belong to the same head; and indeed in sculptures where the heads are fixed we see that the sculptors were not always agreed about the names that belonged to each. Their names seem to tell us what parts of the art of mummy-making these gods were supposed to watch over. The hieroglyphics on the vase of Amset often begin with an address to Isis; those on that of Smotef, with an address to Neith; those on that of Snouf, with an address to Selk; those on that of Hapi, with an address to Nephthys. These va... Paperback, Label: RareBooksClub.com, RareBooksClub.com, Product group: Book, Published: 2012-03-06, Studio: RareBooksClub.com.
