Abstract:		 Three centuries of the history of antiquarian thought - 16th to 19th - are covered in this collection of nine essays, two not previously published, two substantially enlarged and the remainder brought up to date. The subjects are: antiquarian thought in 16th-18th centuries; Brazilian Indians on an Elizabethan monument, William Camden's Britannia; antiquarian thought on Celts and Saxons; the ancestry of Sir Walter Scott's romantic antiquarianism; an investigation of the folk myth of the underground treasure cave perpetually lit; the theme of the fictional antiquary mistaken about the true nature of ancient earthworks; and the origins of the English county archaeological societies.
