Note 85 — Chapter III · ORIGIN AND LANDSCAPE (C) THE RELATIONS BETWEEN THE CULTURES
Charles Francis Atkinson translation
Egyptian law of the Hyksos period, and Chinese of the Period of Contending States, in contrast to the Classical and the Indian law of the Dharmasutras, must have been built up on basic ideas quite other than the idea of the corporeality of persons and things. It would be a grand emancipation from the load of Roman “antiquities” if German research were to succeed in establishing these.
