Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Discusses a copy of Ten Years Diggings by Thomas Bateman, a book on prehistoric barrow excavations published in 1861. The book was owned by Canon Greenwell, whose signature appears on the fly-leaf. In addition it bears two book-plates of L H D Atkinson and was also used by another antiquarian, perhaps one Charles Monkman. The copy bears notes and marginal remarks in pencil in a number of places, a few of which are of interest because they give an idea of Greenwell's relations with fellow antiquaries. While the marginalia do not add greatly to the sum of knowledge, they do show that Greenwell was a shrewd observer of his fellow excavators, and clearly thought Bateman gullible. The archaeological collections in Durham are almost devoid of 'Greenwelliana', so this is an especially valuable memento. LD | |||||
