Note 133 — PLATE XXXIII. HISTORICAL SCARABS OF AMENHETEP III—(continued).
Reading edition
Dr. Budge has suggested to me that this dyke may have been a series of covered pits into which the animals would fall, thus enabling the huntsmen to capture them easily. He would also identify the semau of the Egyptians with the rimi of the Assyrian inscriptions, an animal hunted by Tiglath Pileser and other monarchs.
