Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Key to English Antiquities: With Special Reference to the Sheffield and Rotherham District I have endeavoured to distinguish conjecture from fact in this book by the constant use of the words it is supposed or it appears a use so frequent that it may possibly be wearisome to the reader. But nothing is more necessary, in the present state of English archaeology, than carefully to distinguish between facts and conjectures. We shall never have an English archaeology which is worthy of the name of a science until people have ceased to put forth their conjectures as facts, or to accept on the same level as facts the conjectures of even experts in the subject. Though a brief sketch will be found in the Introductory Chapter of the more important historical characters whose names are associated with this neighbourhood, it has not been my intention to write a history of the district, but to describe and explain the concrete remains of the past which are still so richly to be found there. And in order to do this adequately, I have thought it necessary to indicate at some length the place which the social and religious institutions represented by Norman castles and monastic houses occupied in the history of civilization in England.

Excerpt: ... thing unusual in either the Dec. or Perp. period. Built into the N. wall of the chancel is the canopy of a Dec. tomb, a beautiful piece of work, but evidently not in its original position. The altar tomb underneath it does not belong to it, and has been recently restored; on the top are inserted the brass figures of Robert Eyre of Hope, his wife Joan, the heiress of Padley, t and their 14 children; date 1459. Within the arch itself have been placed the brasses of Robert Eyre (eldest son of the above), his wife, .and four boys. Their two girls have strayed to the other side of the chancel. On a slab of black marble let into the S. wall are two brasses to another son of the first Robert Eyre, Ralph Eyre, and his wife, 1498; they were formerly on an altar tomb. Above the sedilia are fixed brasses to Sir Arthur Eyre (and his wife) grandson of the first Eyre; the figures are kneeling at desks. There is also a small brass plate in the wrong place in the second Eyre monument mentioned above, to Robert Eyre, died 1656, at Cambridge. In the churchyard is a grave which tradition declares to be that of Little John, the famous companion of Robin Hood. J The tradition, which seems to be about a hundred years old, states that he was born at Hathersage, and died in a small cottage near the church. A thigh-bone of immense size was found here about 1780. For the earthwork at Hathersage see p. 57. Possibly this beautiful Flamboyant arch was for an Easter Sepulchre. t This marriage led to the prosperity of the Eyre family, and probably to the Perpendicular restoration of Hathersage church. J See Appendix, Note B. Holmesfteld; St. Swithin; the ancient church, which was Norman, was destroyed in 1826. For the earthwork, . see p. 57. Hooton Roberts; St. John the.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a broad overview of the key concepts in public archaeology, a research field that examines the relationship between archaeology and the public, in both theoretical and practical terms. While based on the long-standing programme of undergraduate and graduate teaching in public archaeology at UCL’s renowned Institute of Archaeology, the book also takes into account the growth of scholarship from around the world and seeks to clarify what exactly ‘public archaeology’ is by promoting an inclusive, socially and politically engaged vision of the discipline. Written for students and practitioners, the individual chapters provide textbook-level introductions to the themes, theories and controversies that connect archaeology to wider society, from the trade in illicit antiquities to the use of digital media in public engagement, and point readers to the most relevant case studies and learning resources to aid their further study. This book was produced as part of JISC's Institution as e-Textbook Publisher project.

Book excerpt: In order to understand our past, we need to understand ourselves as archaeologists and our discipline. This volume presents recent research into collecting practices of European Antiquities by national museums, institutes and individuals during the 19th and early 20th-century, and the 'Ancient Europe' collections that resulted and remain in many museums.This was the period during which the archaeological discipline developed as a scientific field, and the study of the archaeological paradigmatic and practical discourse of the past two centuries is therefore of importance, as are the sequence of key discoveries that shaped our field.Many national museums arose in the early 19th century and strived to acquire archaeological objects from a wide range of countries, dating from Prehistory to the Medieval period. This was done by buying, sometimes complete collections, exchanging or copying. The networks along which these objects traveled were made up out of the ranks of diplomats, aristocracy, politicians, clergymen, military officials and scholars. There were also intensive contacts between museums and universities and there were very active private dealers.The reasons for collecting antiquities were manifold. Many, however, started out from the idea of composing impressive collections brought together for patriotic or nationalistic purposes and for general comparative use. Later on, motives changed, and in the Dutch National Museum of Antiquities became more scientifically oriented. Eventually these collections fossilized, ending up in the depots. The times had changed and the acquisition of archaeological objects from other European countries largely came to an end.This group of papers researches these collections of 'Ancient Europe' from a variety of angles. As such it forms an ideal base for further researching archaeological museum collection history and the development of the archaeological discipline.
