. Types of mankind : or ethnological researches, based upon the ancient monuments, paintings, sculptures, and crania of races and upon their natural, geographical, philological, and biblical history . We detach Fig. 92 from the bas-reliefs of Ramses III., XXth dynasty,at Medeenet Haboo; where he is called Captive prince of the per-verse race of the inimical country of Sheto, living in , very naturally, holds him to be a variety of the Semiticstock; and Sheto, if read Kheto, signifies a Hittite; using the Biblicalterm TLheTt in its widest acceptation. As the type of White races, appears in one of the Thebantombs; and, name unknown, is con-jectured, by Rosellini, to be an an-^o> J y \ j cient example of the Greeks of Asia o \ / i /} Minor, and especially of Ionians. To strengthen this conjecture, I recallhow among the monuments of Thot-mes V. [TV.], and of Meneptha I.,mention is made of this people. mThe Ionians, Javan, &c, are sufficiently discussed in our Part II.,where the IUN of Xth Genesis is analyzed; but Yavan, and thepeople of Yavan, as Grecian tribes of the seventh century ,occur repeatedly upon the monuments of Nineveh.
