18 The Muឥammadan speaks of his wife as his âhouse,â and the determinative to the Egyptian word shows that the ancient Egyptian held the same idea about his wife as the modern Arab.

24 E.g., No. 1031 (389), Bay 27.
25 Strictly speaking the serdâb is a lofty, vaulted, subterranean chamber, with a large opening in the north side to admit air in the hot weather.
26 The word âpyramidâ seems to be derived from the Egyptian Peremus ðð°ðð°ð»ð ð ±ðŽð, which probably means âa building with a sloping side.â
27 The Coptic names are derived from the ancient Egyptian names; thus âThothâ is from ð ð°ðð±ðð, whose festival was celebrated in that month. âChoiakâ is from the name of the festival áž²aឥrȧka ðð°ð€ð·ð°ð€ðð°ð€ð±ð°ð³ð±ðŠ, and so on.
28 We should naturally expect ðð°ð to represent the whole period of the Inundation, and not merely the first two or three weeks of it; and ð·ðð°ð³ cannot originally have referred at all to the period of the Inundation. This subject, however, is one of difficulty.
29 A second Tablet of Abydos, made for Rameses II, is exhibited in the Northern Egyptian Gallery, Bay 6, No. 592.
30 To these may be added the fragment of a stele (now preserved at Palermo), from which the names of a few of the Predynastic kings of Lower Egypt have been recovered.
31 He says: âThe Egyptians in the formation of their Great Year had no regard to the moon. In Greece the Egyptian Year is called âcynicalâ (dog-like), and in Latin âcanicularâ because it commences with the rising of the Canicular or Dog-star, to which is fixed the first day of the month which the Egyptians called Thoth. Their civil year had but 365 days without any intercalation. Thus with the Egyptians the space of four years is shorter by one day than the space of four natural years, and a complete synchronism is only established at the end of 1,461 years.â (Chapter XVIII.) âBut of these [eras] the beginnings always take place on the first day of the month which is called Thoth among the Egyptians, a day which this present year corresponds to the VIIth day of the Kalends of July (June 25), whilst a hundred years ago... this same day corresponded to the XIIth day of the Kalends of August (July 21), at which time the Dog-star is wont to rise in Egypt.â (Chapter XXI.)
32 The name of the king is not given, but ÈŠmenemឥÄt III must be referred to.
33 ððð°ððð°ðð°ð suten rekh, âroyal kinsman.â The title of âroyal kinsmanâ was often bestowed upon officials by kings as a reward for faithful services; ÈŠmenemឥÄt means that his title was not honorary.
34 The word Shasu means primarily ârobber,â and ð·ðð ±ð is the âland of the robber,â i.e., the nomad desert man, who plundered caravans at every opportunity. Later, Shasu ð·ð¿ðð ±ðððª, means merely âpastoral desert tribes.â
35 It was discovered at Ṣân (Tanis) by Mariette, who had the inscription copied; the stele was then carefully buried, and it has not since been seen.
