The other kings, they said, were personages of no note or
distinction, and left no monuments of any account, with the exception
of the last, who was named Moeris. He left several memorials of his
reign - the northern gateway of the temple of Vulcan, the lake
excavated by his orders, whose dimensions I shall give presently, and
the pyramids built by him in the lake, the size of which will be stated
when I describe the lake itself wherein they stand. Such were his
works: the other kings left absolutely nothing.
