Ceremony for the degree of Knight Commander of the Lybic
Chain, 75°
Dit Amerikaanse rituaal dateert uit de tweede helft van de negentiende eeuw.
This is rather the nature of a decoration for the closing grade of the
Consistory or VI Class than a degree. Chains of gold were granted by the
Egyptian, and other Oriental Kings as a Mark of Royal favour. The Hierophants
wore gold chains from which was suspended a Sun. Memphis, Thebes, and Heliopolis
formed a Delta of Cities.
