The latest find Of the British School

respects, one % the most interesting
and important ever made. The work
was done at the brick pyramid OF
Senusert IL, about sixty miles south
Of Cairo. The royal tombs in this
pyramid were all ransac 1ed for buried
treasure long ago, but the director Of
the excavations professor Flinders
Petrie, persevered in the search until
he was rewarded by extra ordinary dis
cOveries, some Of the most interesting
of which are shown in the photo
graphs here reproduced.
In the course Of the excavations five
