Note 767 — Chapter XI · THE STATE (B) STATE AND HISTORY (continued 2)

1785–1580. See, for the following, Ed. Meyer, Gesch. d. Alt. §§ 298, et seq.; Weill, La Fin du moyen empire égyptien (1918). That Ed. Meyer’s assignment is correct as compared with the 1670 years of Petrie has long been proved by the thickness of the strata in which objects have been found and the tempo of the style-evolution (Minoan included). Here it is demonstrated afresh by comparison with corresponding sections in the other Cultures.
