Egyptian Chronology

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. I desire most emphatically to disclaim the opinion formed by one or two friends who have seen the proof sheets that I wish to lower the epoch of human civilisation positive numbers compel me to adopt a lower epoch than that now in fashion for the intro duction of recorded history, which I cannot trace even in monarchic lists to an earlier date than 2924 B. C., but a civilisation which could produce such work as the early sculpture of Egypt before 2500 must have required many centuries to develop.
