The Eighth Volume of the records OF the past has been continued on the same principle as its predecessors. A prominence has naturally been given to historical texts, as they are the most im portant which have been handed down by ancient Egypt. No branch, however, of Egyptian researches has been more minutely explored, and the great his torical texts are almost exhausted. In the present volume will be found a translation of the Sallier Papyrus relating to the Hykshos, the end of the Papyrus comprising the political condition of Egypt in the reign of Rameses III. The Case of Conspiracy against the life of the same monarch; the texts relating to the Gold Mines in the reigns of Seti I. And Rameses II.; and the decree of Canopus, of the reign of Ptolemy Euergetes II., an inscription throwing great light upon the condition of the Egyptian priest hood under the rule of the Greeks in Egypt.
