Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Worthington Smith was an important member of the group of archaeologists whose work established Palaeolithic archaeology as a discipline in Britain. He observed, meticulously recorded and published traces of some of the best Acheulian sites ever to come to light in England. While his overview of the Palaeolithic period has inevitably not stood the test of time, his publications remain of great value for the factual information they contain, and for his fine illustrations. Most of his artefact collections also survive, well documented in spite of the loss of many of his written notes. In this article the author outlines Smith's life and career and his involvement with Palaeolithic archaeology, and assesses the significance of his contribution. Au/LD | ||
