DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from An Archaeological Survey of the United Kingdom, 1896 "What is aimed at is an accurate description - illustrated by plans, measurements, drawings or photographs, and by copies of inscriptions - of such remains as most deserve notice, with the history of them so far as it may be traceable, and a record of the traditions that are retained regarding them." Minute by Lord Canning, Governor-General of India, in Council, 22nd January, 1862. Cunningham, Archaeological Survey of India vol. I., p. III (Simla, 1871, 8vo). "Je m'appliquerai a faire dresser un inventaire complet, un catalogue descriptif et raisonne des monumens de tous les genres et de toutes les epoques qui ont existe ou existent encore sur le sol de la France." Guizot (1831), Rapports et pieces, p. 23. "There is at the present time a most pressing want for an archaeological survey of Great Britain, including within the scope of its operations the plotting down upon the Ordnance Map of every trace of man and his handiwork left by successive generations upon the face of the country." J. Romilly Allen (1889), Journal Brit Archaeol. Assoc., xlv., p. 299. "It is, no doubt, in a great measure owing to an ignorance of the extensive and rich archaeological fields which are scattered over the surface of these islands, that so little interest in the protection of these records of early civilization has been manifested by the Legislature, and by the public generally." Earl of Carnarvon (1881), P.S.A., 2nd S., viii., p. 515. "L'archeologue, en effet, cherche non-seulement a connaitre et a decrire les uvres des siecles passes; il doit encore perpeuer le souvenir de ces monuments que l'age atteint avec plus ou moins de rapidite et qui disparaitront tot ou tard; il faut done que l'archeologue, en meme temps qu'il les decrit, represente les sujets qu'il veut faire connaitre." Trutat, La Photographie appliquee a l'Archeologie, p. (Paris, 1879, 12mo). "A grave mound, a lonely circle of stones, a stone implement, a metal ornament excavated from the covered chamber of death, afford a livelier image of antiquity than Saxo or Snorre, the Eddas, or the Germany of Tacitus." Guide to Northern Archaeology, p. 25 (London, 1848, 8vo). About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
