ANCIENT EGYPTIAN JEWELS
Treasure Recently unearthed in the
Tomb of King Ter Shows Some Marvel
Gus Workmanship.

Some of the most remarkable
Egyptian iewelry ever discovered
has recently been unearthed. The
date assigned is rs remote as 5000
Il. e., but the workmanship in
gold and jewels is marvellous.
In exploring the tomb of King
Ter it was found that the tomb
had been entered for robbery at
some remote period and that the
plunderers had broken off the arm
OF the mummy quietly and hidden
1T IN a crevice in the wall-per-
haps on being discovered or
alarmed-and had never returned
to remove it.
On taking off the wrappings
Prof. Petrie found four mauuif.
cent bracelets of gold, with anne
thys', turquoise and lapis lazuli
in varied and elegant adjustments.
The gold work was peculiarly fine
and delicate though the metal
was soft and pure, apparently
with no hardening alloy. The
stones were beautiful and very
strikingly and peculiarly arrang-
ed.
A number of amethyst beads of
the richest and deepest purple.
about a quarter of an inch in di-
ameter, are in the possession of
Mr.. Edward Aver, of Chicago.
He obtained them from Dashone,
