FIRST WAR IN HISTORY.
Inscriptions Lately Unea1thed Re.
veal the Fact That EGyDt Oaee
InvnAeA France.

That Egypt and France held inter-
course as early as 1000 B. C. is proved
by the marked resemblance of inscrip-
tions found in the two countries, says
the Philadelphia North American. The
excavations of Prot. Flinders Petrie
have brought to light evidence of an
extremely ancient movement between
the land Of the Pharaohs and the coun-
tries bordering on the Mediterranean.
This communication, like all other
great invasions of history, had its
origin in an effort at trade extension.
The great wars of the eighteenth
Egyptian dynasty. were provoked by
surrounding nations jealous of Egypt's
growing wealth and power. In retail
alton Egypt carried the campaign into
Asia and Europe, and, Judging from
the inscriptions mentioned, must have
pushed as far west as France.
Prof. Petrie has in his possession a
series of figures found in Malta and
neolithic remains from Brassenpuoy
in France which are beyond chance of
doubt the work of Egyptians. They
establish intercourse long before the
period which is generally recognized
as the beginning Of the history of the
countries of Europe.
