Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Journal of the British Archaeological Association, Vol. 15: Established 1843, for the Encouragement and Prosecution of Researches Into the Arts and Monuments of the Early and Middle Ages Fourteen years have now elapsed since the first attempt in this country was made by the British Archæological Association, following the example instituted by the antiquaries of Normandy at Caen, to hold a congress for the examination and consideration of the antiquities of any given locality. Our first essay was made, in September 1844, in the county of Kent; and the meeting was held at Canterbury. It was at that time deemed necessary to offer arguments in favour of such inquiries. These, happily, are now no longer required; for the results of that meeting established upon a firm basis the utility of such assemblages, and convinced those who were sceptical as to then value. Since that time, among other bodies besides the Association and the Institute, belonging to, and holding their ordinary sittings in, London, many local societies have followed the example, and thereby given to the public more general and more just notions of the antiquities of our island than had hitherto been afforded. Among those branches formed for the promotion of archaeological research, stands conspicuously the Wiltshire Archaeological and Natural History Society, established in 1854; with whose members we have the gratification this day of associating in the warmest feelings of friendship.
