We establish that the powerset P(R) of the real line R, ordered by set-inclusion, has the same ordertype as a certain subset of P(R) ordered by homeomorphic embeddability. This is a contribution to the ongoing study of the possible ordertypes of subfamilies of P(R)under embeddability, pioneered by Banach, Kuratowski and Sierpinski.
