WADDELL ON PHOENICIAN ORIGINS. BY SIR RICHARD C. TEMPLE, BT. (Continued from page 197.)

Cup-Markings on Stone and Circles on Coins.
On this abstruse subject Waddell is even more original and startling than he has been hitherto in this book. The long title of this Chapter thereon is sufficient proof :-" Prehistoric cup-markings on circles, rocks, etc., in Britain; and circles on ancient Briton coins and monuments, as invocations to the Sun-god in Sumerian cipher script by early Phoenicians: disclosing decipherment and translation by identical cup-marks on Hitto-Sumerian seals and Trojan amulets with explanatory Sumerian script: and Hitto-Sumerian origin of godnames; Jahoveh or Jove, Indra, Indri, Thor of the Goths, St. Andrew; Earth-goddess Mais or May, the Three Fates, and English names of the numerals." Material enough here, one would think, for a whole book. 3
Starting with eight figures of cup-marked stones in Britain, Waddell gives eleven of cup-marks on Hitto-Sumerian amulet whorls from Troy, which he compares with ten figures on archaic Sumerian seals and amulets associated with a Sumerian seal dated B.c. 3000, showing "circles as diagnostic circle marks of Sumerian and Chaldee deities in the Trial of Adam, the Son of God Ia (Iahoveh or Jove or Indara)."
