The Mummies of the rich discovered in Peru, are invariably wrapped in cloth, _crimson_ (purple) _coloured_;--here then is the National colour of Tyrus, (derived from the shellfish) and which made that country so renowned. The _colour itself_ is found enveloping the bodies of the rich,--while the useless and "broken shells" are found beneath the Mummies of the poor,--_the same National tribute to both_,--though in degree, according to the _wealth_ of the deceased;--for the Tyrians, like the Egyptians, would not admit of any distinction in the grave, as to rank or title;--but, believed that in the great Republic of Death, all were equal,--and,--as in the Kingdom of Kingdoms,--that good deeds alone constituted the true distinctions. In a notice of the Ancient Mummies of Teneriffe, the Baron Humboldt states, that they _differ from the Egyptians_ in physiognomy, and that the ornaments resemble those used in Mexican America! Now when the illustrious Traveller wrote those facts (as shewn in the following quotation), there was no Theory in his mind in reference to the Tyrians,--yet his remarks will support this present History, and they are too important, as to undeniable authority, to be passed by indifferently by the reader. Baron Humboldt says-- "On examining carefully the physiognomy of the _ancient Canarians_, able anatomists have recognised in the cheek-bones, and the lower jaw, perceptible _differences_ from the Egyptian Mummies. The corpses are often decorated with small laces [necklaces] to which are hung little _disks_ of baked earth [clay] that seemed to have served as numerical [Religious?] Signs; and _resemble the quippoes of the Peruvians and Mexicans_!" [Per. Nar., p. 278.] Here then upon the high authority of Humboldt, is an analogy traced between the ornaments of the Mummies of the Guanches (Tyrians) and the ancient inhabitants of Mexican America. Upon every consideration of the subject the Mummies discovered at Teneriffe and in Peru are identical;--the same kind are not found in any other parts of the world,--and Teneriffe (as chief of the Fortunate Isles) was known, visited, and inhabited by the Tyrians. SECTION V. SUMMARY OF ANALOGIES BETWEEN THE ANCIENT TYRIANS AND MEXICAN ABORIGINES. To prove that the Mexican Aborigines were originally from the Tyrians, we have established the following powerful Analogies, as being practised, found, or in tradition among the People of both Nations, and they are the only two countries where the same similitudes can be found;--we will not say in a single instance, but _collectively_,--and in that way only should they be viewed by the reader. The summary is as follows: viz.--
