LONDON, June 1. 1912
The archaeological excavations under
the direction Of Daninos Pasha have now
fully revealed the Metropolis OF Heliopo-
lis. which was the intellectual center Of
Egypt for over four thousand years. and
the place where Moses received the sa-
cerdotal and military training which
enabled him to lead the Israelites out OF
their Egyptian bondage
The Metropolis is situated In the desert
trifie more than three miles eastward
of the Matarish Obelisk. The burial
places cut from the rocks Of the Arabian
range were from 65 to go feet deep.
They were covered with sand. the re-
moval of which revealed mummies OF
human bodies and the skeletons Of sacred
animals and birds. Unchanged ibis eggs
were also found. Unfortunately these
tombs had been ransacked years ago by
Romans and Arabs hunting for treasure.
and only about or 6 per cent OF
them had escaped the ravages Of the
treasure seekers.
Hope Of Mnevisseum.
A pillar has been found decorated with
the black bull Mnevis. and this indicates
what the excavators hope will prove to
be in the newly discovered Metropolis.

objects and documents OF the greatest
