RE: [Ancientartifacts] replacement of the beetle with horus, baboon, other animals on scarabs

I was only commenting that Percy Newberry wrote two books on Scarabs. The
Ares reprint in 1979 is quite clear to me that it is an unaltered copy of
the 1905 original, which only mentions the University of Liverpool in the
Preface. Everything else (no of plates, and your reference) matches up.
Maybe there was a reprint in 1906?

This is fairly irrelevant to the group. 1905 or 1906, the book is the same.
