Manetho was an Egyptian of the 3rd century BCE. Born probably at
Sebennytus in the Delta, he became a priest or high priest at
Heliopolis. Apparently he and a Greek Timotheus did much to
establish the cult of Serapis in Egypt. Eight works or parts of
works were ascribed to him, all on history and religion and all
apparently in Greek: "Aegyptiaca, " on the history of Egypt; "The
Sacred Book" on Egyptian religion; "An Epitome of Physical
Doctrines; On Festivals; On" Ancient Ritual and Religion; On the
Making of Kyphi (an incense); "The Criticisms of Herodotus;" and
the spurious "Book of Sothis." These survive only as quoted by
other writers. This volume also contains the doubtful "Kings of
Thebes" (in Egypt) and the "Old Chronicle."
