statue is about two inches in length
and is made Of equal parts of gold,
silver and copper, and is of exquisite
workmanship.
: Another image recovered to which
attaches especial interest is the figure
of a man-god, the physical character
istics of which coincide with those Of
the mummied bodies. It also bears a
marked resemblance to the Egyptians.
The curved nose, running straight
from the forehead, eyes and thick
lips, are closely like the sculptured
heads which have been recovered Of
Tahutmes III, Princess Nefert and
of early Egyptian kings in limestone
at Karaak.
!. These images, together with the
methods of embalming, the art OBJ
jects and household and industrial
implements, it is believed, give strong
grounds for concluding that the civil
zation of the Egyptians of the historic
period and the ancient Peruvians came
from the same source, or that the
Egyptians got their civilization from
the Peruvians. /.

on the beach outside the hotel. The
drum was in charge of a blacksmith,
and he beat it so resonantly that at

"The, bandmaster was puzzled by
this message for a moment; then his
face frightened in a smile, and he
said: 2.

likes it."
