THROW LIGHT ON 18th DYNASTY

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
paniment of, objects for their future life,
they were sealél away, and the entrance
to their eternal resting place was dis-
guised and hidden with every care—‘‘no
one seeing, no one hearifg,” as an old in-
scription puts it. Yet there very soon
came a time when these rich and mysteri-
Some-

 

ous graves ceased to be inviolate.
how robbers found them out, pefietrated
them and* rifled their fabulously valuable

contents. No greater impiety, no more

horrible fate for a dead man existed for |

the Egyptian mind. When the plundering

was discovered, the poor, desecrated kings fF

were removed from their violatéd graves
and secretly and, hastily were reburied all

together, shorn of much of their treasure’

of high estate. So fared the. greatest
kin@s of the XVIIIth Dynasty; but, by
gome freak of fortune the ancien, tomb-
- robbers, though they found’ and: entered
the tomb of this rather unimportant ruler,
Tutenkhamon, were detected before they
could ‘properly pillage it. The tomb was
résealed and in-some way protected from
further molestation until, the knowledge of
tts whereabouts died out. By an accident
it was never again discovered until the
scientific plunderers of today (who to an
ancient Egyptian would be no less impiaus
and abhorrent than any common theif) at
last happened on the buried entrance-way.
You will see from this why the discovery
of a practically intact royal tomb of the
XVIIIth Dynasty is art event of the great-
. est rarity and interest to Egyptology.
Lastly, the Very period in which Tutenk-
hanfon lived, chances to be one of the
most interesting epochs in the entire 3000
years during which Egyptian art was ac-
tive. You will remember that Akhnaton
the Heretic built himself a new city and
was a great fosterer of art. In art as in
religion he seems to have been-a revolu-
tionist, an enemy of old conventions. The
shining sun was god enough for religion,
and the shining sunlit earth was master
enough for art. The king was_an advocate
of naturalism, a fresh turning to Nature,
to individual expression of one’s own: de-
light in the world of: sense.

The rest of this article will be printed in
the News next week. _
