and spire of St
Mary's, Whittlesey, and the rich wooden roof of Outwell church, may be
selected. Monastic remains are scanty. Excluding the town of Cambridge
there are no domestic buildings, either ancient or modern, of special
note, with the exception of Sawston Hall, in the south of the county, a
quadrangular mansion dated 1557-1584.

CAMBUSLANG, a town of Lanarkshire, Scotland. It is situated near the
Clyde, 4-1/2 m. S.E. of Glasgow (of which it is a residential suburb) by
the Caledonian railway. Pop. (1891) 8323; (1901) 12,252. Its leading
industries include coal-mining, turkey-red dyeing and brick-making. It
contains one of the largest steel works in the United Kingdom. Among the
chief edifices are a public hall, institute and library. It was the
birthplace of John Claudius London (1783-1843), the landscape gardener
and writer on horticulture, whose _Arboretum et Fruticetum Britannicum_
still ranks as an authority.

CAMBYSES (Pers. _Kambujiya_), the name borne by the father and the son
of Cyrus the Great. When Cyrus conquered Babylon in 539 he was employed
in leading religious ceremonies (_Chronicle of Nabonidus_), and in the
cylinder which contains Cyrus's proclamation to the Babylonians his name
is joined to that of his father in the prayers to Marduk. On a tablet
dated from the first year of Cyrus, Cambyses is called king of Babel.
But his authority seems to have been quite ephemeral; it was only in
530, when Cyrus set out on his last expedition into the East, that he
associated Cambyses on the throne, and numerous Babylonian tablets of
this time are dated from the accession and the first year of Cambyses,
when Cyrus was "king of the countries" (i.e. of the world). After the
death of his father in the spring of 528 Cambyses became sole king. The
tablets dated from his reign in Babylonia go down to the end of his
eighth year, i.e. March 521 B.C.[1] Herodotus (iii. 66), who dates his
reign from the death of Cyrus, gives him seven years five months, i.e.
from 528 to the summer of 521. For these dates cf. Ed. Meyer,
