What reading level is Below the Cataracts book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This chapel is hewn out of the cliffs, and the sand- stone walls and roofing were evidently used to withstand the downward pressure of the nummulite limestone above. There are traces of the base of an altar in Hatshepsu's shrine of offerings, to the left of the sanctuary, and in every case, where the heathen gods were not hidden by church furniture, their faces have been obliterated.
Walls rebuilt by these monks leave us speculating whether they enclosed dormitories or refectory. Little regard ...was shown for the designs of the ancient decoration ; a stone with beautifully cut head of a Thothmes would be put upside down, if it fitted into the wall better that way ; and the legs 174 AMONG THE TEMPLES of a god may only support a meat-offering on the stone above. On spaces not covered with hieroglyphics or relieved by figures, one can find sentences inscribed in the cursive or hieratic writing, or in the demotic, which is a development of the latter. An inscription in Greek characters records a prayer to Aesculapius, probably scratched here by some workman brought over from Greece during the Ptolemies, while a further interest is given to this stone by an amendment of a Coptic monk, centuries later, who, after cutting a cross above this prayer, has written underneath " No one heals but God himself.
