Note on signet rings:
'Signet ring of fine gold weighing nearly 3 sovereigns
bearing the name of Shufu the (Suphis) of the Greeks
This remarkable piece of antiquity is in the highest state
preservation
andsaid to have been found at Gezehin a tomb near
thatto the excavation of Col CampbellThe work
inThe style of the hieroglyphics is perfectly that of those
sculptorshieroglyphicsof the tombs about thegreat pyramid all the details are eminently executed
The heaven is engraved with
minutestars; The Fox or Jackall hassignificant lines within its con[t]our; The hatchets have
their handles bound with thongs as usual in the sculptures; The volumes have the
string that binds them
differentlyhanging below theroll differently placed from any example in sculptured or
painted hierogs in the tombs; The determinative for country
is studded with dots representing the sand of the mountainous
margins of the
sidevalley of Egypt The sign [F35] has thetongue and semilunar mark of the longer examples as also
the vase in the shape of the heart. The Name is surmounted
by the
usualglobe and feathers decorated in the usual way exceptthat the lines are more horizontal than in the sculptured examples,
and the ring of The cartouch is engraved with lines representing
a rope
ofofwhich decorationI know noof the line inclosingthe hieroglyphics of a royal name I know of no example but
this; the [Aa1] in the name is placed as in the tombs not in
the
centreas of the cartouch; the chickens have their unfledgedwings The serastes its horns to be seen only with the magnifying
glass
Ofthe variationsinfrom the usual made of representinga volume and the inclosure of Royal names are circumstances
favorable to the genuineness of this remarkable piece of antiquity
for when taken into consideration with the style
of the workwhichis infinitely more difficult to imitate than
littlelittlex(?)
in whichdetailsfromin which the fabricator would not haveventured to differ from the known examples'
