To FRANK GAVIN
This book was originally planned as the joint work of my colleague, Dr Frank Gavin, and myself. Other duties compelled him to withdraw from the undertaking, but it none the less owes more than can be told to his expert knowledge and lavishly given advice.
Appreciative thanks are also due to Dr E. R. Hardy for his generous help in checking the translation from the Sahidic.
