Book excerpt: Excerpt from Archaeological and Historical Researches The Manoboc dynasty, which has reigned in China since 1644, did not change the names of the capital. I must however remark, that the name Peking, so familiar to every European, is hardly known by the Chinese of our days. The learned Chinese understand of course what is meant by this name, but Peking is always called y}: w King-ch'eng or 753 fi King-ta, both meaning capital, by the Chinese. This is a summary of the history of Peking, which has seen so many political changes, and altered its name under almost every dynasty. We shall see, that the place, where the capital stood, has also changed several times. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Researches in Sinai When first I went to Egypt, twenty-six years ago, I read and noted the accounts of Sinai, in the hope that I might be able to visit the monuments there and this hope was not extinguished by all the intervening years of other work. The recent reports of monuments of the early dynasties gave additional reason for a Search which might supplement the discoveries at Abydos. And the reduction of the resources for my work with the Explora tion Fund made it imperative to take a site where copy ing was more required than excavation. Hence it came about that last winter we lived for four months in the wilderness instead of in the green plains of Egypt.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Biblical Archaeology During the short existence of the drcboeological Review, the sole English Journal which has paid particular attention to the history of early institutions as part of Archaeology, I contributed a number of essays dealing with various aspects of Biblical Archmology from that point of view. These attracted some attention at the time of their appearance, and I have been frequently asked since to make them more accessible to the student of the Old Testament and of institutional Archaeology in general. I have accordingly collected them together mainly in the form in which they originally appeared; only in a few cases have I added in square brackets, references relating to subsequent publications, while I have attempted in the Introduction to bring the whole of my researches, so far as possible, up to date. I have added at the end of the volume my review of the Revised Version of the Old Testament which originally appeared in the dtbeneum, as, by a curious chance, this happened to be the earliest criticism of that im portant publication which appeared.

Book Synopsis A Brief History of Archaeology by : Nadia Durrani
Download or read book A Brief History of Archaeology written by Nadia Durrani and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-17 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This short account of the discipline of archaeology tells of spectacular discoveries and the colorful lives of the archaeologists who made them, as well as of changing theories and current debates in the field. Spanning over two thousand years of history, the book details early digs as well as covering the development of archaeology as a multidisciplinary science, the modernization of meticulous excavation methods during the twentieth century, and the important discoveries that led to new ideas about the evolution of human societies. A Brief History of Archaeology is a vivid narrative that will engage readers who are new to the discipline, drawing on the authors’ extensive experience in the field and classroom. Early research at Stonehenge in Britain, burial mound excavations, and the exploration of Herculaneum and Pompeii culminate in the nineteenth century debates over human antiquity and the theory of evolution. The book then moves on to the discovery of the world’s pre-industrial civilizations in Egypt, Mesopotamia, and Central America, the excavations at Troy and Mycenae, the Royal Burials at Ur, Iraq, and the dramatic finding of the pharaoh Tutankhamun in 1922. The book concludes by considering recent sensational discoveries, such as the Lords of Sipán in Peru, and exploring the debates over processual and postprocessual theory which have intrigued archaeologists in the early 21st century. The second edition updates this respected introduction to one of the sciences’ most fascinating disciplines.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Index of Archaeological Papers, 1665-1890 The Index finishes where the annual index published by the Congress of Archaeological Societies begins, and there is thus a continuous index from the first publications in the philosophical transactions of the Royal Society down to the present time. It had been my intention to complete my task by adding a classified subject index, but the work has so exceeded its original compass that I have found it impossible to accomplish this further task. I am not without hopes, however, that this necessary addition may be accomplished by some younger student anxious to be of service in the cause of research. It has been found necessary to have an appendix of titles omitted in the course of the compilation, and students should not fail to consult this appendix, as well as the main Index.

Book Synopsis The Archaeology and Site History of 75 State Street (Classic Reprint) by : Michael Roberts
Download or read book The Archaeology and Site History of 75 State Street (Classic Reprint) written by Michael Roberts and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Archaeology and Site History of 75 State Street In 1985, Timelines performed background research and intensive archaeological survey as part of the environmental analysis for the 75 State Street project. This analysis indicated that the project area had been significantly disturbed by nineteenth and twentieth-century cellar construction. There was the possibility, however, that significant data might still exist on the site. Using a framework for the evaluation of various classes of significant data, the excavation was monitored during construction. This monitoring continued into early Spring of 1988 as the project used the up-down construction method, under which excavation of the lower parking levels continued even after topping out. Discovered and documented as a result of this monitoring were the Contact Period shoreline, the remnants of an early well, and various components of wharfing dated throughout the Colonial Period. In addition to the discoveries, it was confirmed that the site had been massively disturbed by earlier construction-related activities, even in those areas anticipated to be relatively undisturbed such as Bang's Alley. Additional components of the project were histories, reports, and other research focusing on specific aspects of the project area important to the project developer. It is important to note that all cultural-resource work was satisfactorily completed without impacting the construction schedule.

This book was released on 2018-02-21 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Archaeological Researches in Palestine During BY reason of certain circumstances which it would take too long to explain, it has been thought advisable to publish the second volume of this work before the first. The Author wishes to apologize for the adoption Of this unusual order, which he decided upon with a View to avoiding further delays. He hopes that no serious inconvenience will be caused, as the present volume forms an independent whole, devoted to Palestine, but excluding Jerusalem and its environs, which will form the subject matter of Volume I. The only difficulty is that the reader will have to refer to the first volume for the fac-sz'mz'les of the numerous masons' marks mentioned in the second volume, as well as for those in the first. It was thought that it would be best to bring together the main types of these marks, classified and numbered, into a single comprehensive table, followed by a list containing all the necessary references, and thescheme of the work made the first volume the natural place for this table.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Addendum I: A Guide to Research Papers in the Archaeology of North Carolina on File With the Archaeology Branch of the North Carolina Division of Archives and History In 1980 the North Carolina Archaeological Council published a bibliography of archaeological papers on file with one of its member institutions. Appearing as Publication 13 in the Council Series, A guide to research papers in the archaeology of North Carolina on file with the Archaeology Branch of the North Carolina Division of Archives and History provided a list of 661 works to those involved with archaeological research or resource management. Most of these works, which cover archaeological projects throughout the state, were unpublished. Since the publication of that bibliography, the Archaeology Branch's file of dissertations, theses, articles, and contract reports on archaeology has grown. In addition, many of the major sources of published archaeological works in North Carolina have been indexed for use in environmental review at the branch. As a result, the number of additional references has led to the compilation of a second bibliography. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Archaeological Studies Among the Ancient Cities of Mexico In December, 1894, a number of gentlemen, representing different branches of scientific research, were invited by Mr. A. V. Armour to accompany him in his steam yacht Ituna on a voyage to Mexico. Three months were spent in that most interesting country, mainly in the states of Yucatan, Chiapas and Oaxaca. The writer was a mem ber of the party and, as Curator of Anthropology in the Field Colum bian Museum, was expected to examine and describe such archeologic remains as happened to be encountered during the journey. The following report, issued for convenience in two parts, is the result. Besides this a short paper treating of the geology, and particularly of the cenotes or natural wells of Yucatan, will appear in the Journal of Geology of the University of Chicago.
