Excerpt from An Atlas of Ancient Egypt: With Complete Index, Geographical and Historical Notes, Biblical References, Etc The Committee of the Egypt Exploration Fund issues this volume of Maps of Ancient Egypt as a Special Publication, in the belief that many of its friends and subscribers may desire to possess such an Atlas exhibiting the latest identifications Of ancient sites, and more especially marking the important geographical discoveries which have resulted from the work of the Society. Egypt changes but little, and the modern Map, with the natural as well as the artificial features depicted upon it, will give a truer insight into the physiography of the country in ancient times than the skeleton maps of Ancient Egypt which follow it. This map also shows the lines of the modern desert roads (which generally coincide with those of the old roadways), the Egyptian railway system, and the Suez Canal; it will therefore be appreciated by travellers, as well as by archaeological enquirers. Opposite to the maps of Ancient Egypt will be found tables containing the names of the N omes and their capitals, and of the local gods, but the state of our present knowledge does not enable us to delineate their boundaries; which, moreover, often varied.
