Dear all I've lost the post - but someone said the name was gibberish (the language of Gibber the alchemist btw) - but wondered how you could be so sure about that - given how contruing of the phrases from the grimoires and magical papyri is quite a tricky process - would be nice if someone compiled a glossary of those already done so far from various new books? Can't say whether it is in Betz off hand - as my edition doesn't have an index - does anyone know whether there is a volume two with the notes as promised?? Or maybe someone knows the page number for a likely invocation of thoth - on the face of it Taphthartharath looks like it has the name thoth in it - but i'm still a bit of a novice in late egyptian stuff -??
