Abstract
IN the Times of October 28 there appeared, under the signatures of Prof. J. M. Mackay, of Liverpool University, and Messrs. Percy Newberry and John Garstang, a letter on an important archæological subject, entitled “Etruscan and Hyksos—a Hittite Clue.” The object of this letter appears to have been to prove a culture-connection in the second millennium, B.C., between the Etruscans in Italy, the Kheta or “Hittites” in Asia Minor and northern Syria, and the mysterious Hyksos or “Shepherd Kings” who invaded Egypt, and usurped its government between the thirteenth and eighteenth dynasties.
