424 See above, p. 132. However, Prof. Ed. Meyer may be right in thinking that the priest-like figure in the procession is not really that of the priest but that of the god or goddess whom he personated. See above, p. 133 note. 425 See above, pp. 36 _sqq._ 426 H. Winckler, “Vorläufige Nachrichten über die Ausgrabungen in Boghaz-köi im Sommer 1907,” _Mitteilungen der Deutschen Orient-Gesellschaft_, No. 35, December, 1907, pp. 27 _sq._, 29; J. Garstang, _The Land of the Hittites_, pp. 352 _sq._; “Hittite Archives from Boghaz-Keui,” translated from the German transcripts of Dr. Winckler by Meta E. Williams, _Annals of Archaeology and Anthropology_, iv. (Liverpool and London, 1912) p. 98. We have seen (above, p. 136) that in the seals of the Hittite treaty with Egypt the Queen appears along with the King. If Dr. H. Winckler is right in thinking (_op. cit._ p. 29) that one of the Hittite queens was at the same time sister to her husband the King, we should have in this relationship a further proof that mother-kin regulated the descent of the kingship among the Hittites as well as among the ancient Egyptians. See above, p. 44, and below, vol. ii. pp. 213 _sqq._ 427 Compare Ed. Meyer, _Geschichte des Altertums_,2 i. 2. pp. 629-633. M105 Sandan at Tarsus appears to be a son of Baal, as Hercules was a son of Zeus. 428 The figure exhibits a few minor variations on the coins of Tarsus. See the works cited above, p. 127. 429 Above, p. 119. _ 430 The Magic Art and the Evolution of Kings_, ii. 358 _sqq._ _ 431 The Dying God_, pp. 166 _sqq._ M106 Priests of Sandan-Hercules at Tarsus. Kings of Cilicia related to Sandan. 432 Athenaeus, v. 54, p. 215 B, C. The high-priest of the Syrian goddess at Hierapolis held office for a year, and wore a purple robe and a golden tiara (Lucian, _De dea Syria_, 42). We may conjecture that the priesthood of Hercules at Tarsus was in later times at least an annual office. 433 E. Meyer, _Geschichte des Alterthums_, i. (Stuttgart, 1884) § 389, p. 475; H. Winckler, in E. Schrader’s _Keilinschriften und das Alte Testament_,3 p. 88. Kuinda was the name of a Cilician fortress a little way inland from Anchiale (Strabo, xiv. 5. 10, p. 672).
