INTRODUCTION. 


The  present  Volume  of  the  ('(((ulinjuc  Gfucral  contains  drawings  and 
descri}»tions  oi'  all  tiic  scarah-sliapcd  seals,  and  scarabs  bcarinii;  historical 
inscriptions,  in  tiie  ^Miiscnni;  the  aniuletic  and  heart  scaral)s  will  he  descrilx'd 
in  the  volumes  on  amulets  1)y  ])r.  Iveisner. 

The  collection,  numbering  over  1500  specimens,  is  a  ivjn'esentative  one, 
and  contains  exam}»les  of  all  ])eriods  from  the  end  of  the  Sixth  Dynasty  to 
the  time  of  the  last  native  Egyi)tian  ruler,  Xectaneho.  In  Twelfth  Dynasty 
specimens  it  is  especially  rich,  those  from  Dahchour  being  the  linest  examples 
of  the  period  to  be  found  in  any  museum  in  the  world. 

The  collection  was  begun  by  M.  ^lariette  in  18.08,  and  it  ap])ears  to  have 
l)een  much  richer  formerly  than  at  ])resent.  A  number  of  interesting 
specimens,  descril)ed  in  the  Joiii'ikiI  (/'ciitirc  da  iium'c  and  in  Mariette's 
Monuiiu'ids  Divers,  are  not  to  be  found  now.  Writing  in  188'.),  Professor 
Flinders  Petrie  says  that  "the  8caral»s  [ligured]  in  the  Mouinnciits  Divers 
were  all  in  the  Boulak  JMuseuni,  but  most  were  stolen  in  1878'  ....  I  hear 
that  they  were  mainly  sold  to  (ieneral  ('esnola  lor  Xew  York.''-  8ome 
exarni)les  fortunately  have  l)een  recovered  by  purchase  (Xos.  -3G0.54,  3(3001, 
3G0G7,  &c.),  a  few  stray  ones  can  be  traced  in  private  hands,  but  the  greater 
number  of  those  stolen  have  disappeared. 

In  describing  the  specimens  I  have  carefully  noted  the  length,  width  and 
height,  and  given  a  description  of  the  inscription  or  device  on  the  base,

drawings  of  the  hacks,  and  then  sorted  them  into  a  series  of  six  principal 
tvi>es,  specimens  of  which  will  he  found  on  Plates  XIX-XXII.  The  t}'i)e.s 
are : —
