was ample evidence OF the fear of being
disturbed by prowling nomadlc bands

unually dwelt In the minda OF the an
Client Egyptians. There We're several

near the real tombs, some OF them bear

deceive marauders. The actual tomhs
were inscribed with warnings which
threatened terrible penalties upon any
intruder The remains OF the two
prlncesses were inclosed In rich sarco-
phagi within a fine vault. An Imposing,
array OF sculptured figures stood guard

which had adorned the wcarers AT tho
court of the Pharaohs. Prlncess
