Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the Antiquities of the Bronze Age: In the Department of British and Mediaeval Antiquities The same authority points out that at Hallstatt and other places In which graves have been examined belonging to the transitional period, when both 1ron and bronze were in: use together, the weapons and tools Of Iron, though oxidised, still retain their form and character as completely as those in bronze. This fact affords strong ground for believing that had iron been present with bronze in other early inter ments, it would also have been preserved. Arguments like these are incontrovertible in the case Of most countries where prehistoric implements have been found, but in such regions as north-eastern Africa there is Still perhaps room for doubt. Evidence in favour Of the extreme antiquity Of iron in Egypt has already been given, and it must not be for gotten that Africa, which as a continent never had a Bronze age, was possessed Of abundant ores from which good malle able iron could be extracted by processes far simpler than those required for the manufacture Of bronze. The district west Of the Upper Nile is very rich in iron, and Professor Gowland has shown that the furnace used in modern times in Kordofan has close analogies with one represented on a tomb bearing the name Of Thothmes III (about 1530 rc.) and with those employed by the Etruscans and other peoples Of Southern Europe west Of the Apennines. The metallurgy Of iron in this part of Africa was evidently both an ancient and a vigorous art, and its origins may be more remote than is usually suspected.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the Antiquities of the Stone Age: In the Department of British and Mediaeval Antiquities A sense of international justice led him to desire that the finest pieces from these discoveries should be returned to France; hence, a number of carvings, as well as the engraving of a mammoth, perhaps the best example of palaeolic art, are only represented in his own collection by plaster casts. A portrait bust of Mr. Christy stands at the foot of the spiral staircase leading from the Stone Age Gallery. For a few of the illustrations the Trustees of the British Museum have to thank Mr. Worthington G. Smith, in whose work on primeval man figs. 2, 3, 4, 9, 11-14, and 141 have been published: and the Society of Antiquaries of London for figs. 87, 112, 136-140, and 142. Nearly all the other drawings, as well as the plates, have been specially prepared for this Guide, and comprise a large number of objects that have not been hitherto published. It may be added that where the illustrations are not full size, the amount of reduction is indicated by a fraction; thus, means that the original has twice the length and breadth, but four times the area, of the reproduction. The antiquities of the Stone Age from this and other countries are arranged as far as possible in chronological order, beginning with the palaeolithic series in Wall-Case 99, which is reached by the western spiral staircase, on the left of the opening into the Prehistoric Room. At the foot of this staircase is a map of England and Wales, marked to show the sites of bone-caves and palaeolithic discoveries; while at the top of the stairs a relief map of the Thames Valley near London shows the extent of the ancient river-bed, now occupied by gravels and brick-earth, and the southern limit, at Finchley, of the Boulder clay (coloured blue). Specimens of worked flint, showing the peculiarities by which human work in this material can be distinguished from flints chipped or fractured by natural agencies, are exhibited in a section of Table-Case B (see p. 115) on the floor of this room, and may be usefully studied before an inspection of the flint implements exhibited upstairs. For the block of breccia in Table-Case T between the spiral staircases, see pp. 35, 42. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Its special interest is to be found in the fact that here for the first time is seen a form of art peculiarly British, and distinct from contemporary styles on the Continent. Moreover, it may be claimed that the Late-Keltic artist in Britain reached a higher level than his kinsman abroad. The acquisition in 1901 of the Gaulish collection formed by M. Leon Morel, of Rheims, has practically completed the Museum series of Early Iron age antiquities from western Europe, and the connexion between Gaul and Britain at that period is now fully illustrated. As remains of the earliest Iron age in Greece and Italy are not definitely marked off from those of the historic period, corresponding collections from classical lands must be sought in the adjoining Department of Greek and Roman antiquities. But an attempt is made in the Introduction to show how the Mediterranean culture affected the Keltic peoples north of the Alps; and a broad classification of Italian brooches has been introduced, as several specimens are known to have been found in our own country. A survey of Britain's Early Iron age would be incomplete without some notice of the coinage, and as exhibition space is not available in the Department of Coins and Medals, a series of reproductions has been placed in the Late-Keltic section and labelled to show the development and variety of the types; while the tribal areas of the period are shown in maps of Gaul and Britain.

Book excerpt: Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.
