Excerpt from Discovery in Greek Lands: A Sketch of the Principal Excavations and Discoveries of the Last Fifty Years This little book was originally written for the Cambridge Manuals of Science and Literature, and is confined to the limits of space allowed in that series. Its aim is to give the general reader some idea of the additions made by the excavations of the past fifty years to our knowledge of Ancient Greece. The specialist in Archaeology will naturally look elsewhere for his information, but it is hoped that this slight sketch may be of interest to those who are not specialists in the subject, but would like to know something of the progress of discovery in Greece and Greek lands.
