... an ancestor of Christ they were kinsmen of our Lord, and they claimed to reign by divine right." Budge, Kebra Nagast, p. x. 93. Matthew 12:42; Luke 11:31. 94. "The Kebra Nagast is a great storehouse of legends and traditions, some historical and some of a purely folklore character, derived from the Old Testament and the later Rabbinic writings, and from Egyptian (both pagan and Christian), Arabian and Ethiopian sources. Of the early history of the compilation and its maker, and of its subsequent editors we know nothing, but the principal groundwork of its earliest form was the traditions that were current in ...

... , and the dance from many centuries of the Egyptian past. The malformation or deformity of Akhnaton's legs appears grotesque to a modem spectator; in antiquity it must have struck the onlooker at his bas-reliefs and statues in the same way. In the legend Oedipus' feet are swollen; in the pictures of Akhnaton the thighs are swollen. In folklore feet may stand for legs. Many languages do not have different words for legs and feet.

... connexion with the fact that the Vedic altar was symbolically the extreme point of the Earth, as paralleled to the Navel of the Universe. And as to what is said about the End of the world on that page, it may be here added from Grimm's Tales,17 that the end is reached, in those myth-scraps that survive in Folklore, after adventures with gryphons and fierce mountain piling giants.
