I said I could plainly see intricate de signs worked in has relief ’.n the high vaulted part of the ceiling which was visible from here. There were carvings on the outside of the door way. Suddenly I made out what aeamod to be winged canoes, with human figures la them. “That looks distinctly Uks an Egyptian Influence," I commented, "Look at the position of those wlnga." From this western door there seemed to be a path leading down the face of the cliff. I handed the glasses to Tom. That Is absolutely Egyptian." he declared after a moment's study. “Ivook at the way those wings He flat along the sides. The hawk wings of Horus," be added.

It does, but the peak Is only about a hundred feet through up there.” , Tom “ gradually bearing to port now that we were at the south end of the Island, to bring us up on the eastern aide. Then we saw it—that great east j! er n door of the temple and the wide, ; flat plasa which ran out from It to the edge of the cliff, whiiih overhung k At that point just slightly, leaving a sheer drop of hundreds of feet to the water which lapped the base. That was nothing but the back j door we saw around there on the . other side.” Holmes ejaculated. | “But this Is the EASTERN side." j Pauo said quietly. . “Facing the rising sun?" lone asked.

Pauo answered quietly and without hesitation: “Some were eaten, and aosne thrown over the cliff to propitiate the gods of tbs sea depending cn whether they were enemies captured la battle, or whether they were sacrifices."
