Book Description
Excerpt from Guide to Northern Archaeology by the Royal Society of Northern Antiquaries of Copenhagen: Edited for the Use of English Readers Tee most perfect and enduring form in which the memora bilia of the present day can be preserved for posterity is that of written documents; the facility with which these are now prepared and multiplied in copies by the assistance of the press, makes the information they embody imperishable. In ancient times and through the middle ages, the difficulty was greater; written documents were less difl'uscd, costlier, the property rather of individuals than of the people at large, and least of all, of the bumbler classes. We may therefore assume that what has been preserved belonged to the choicer productions of its age; that it was something on which the most dist inguished and enlightened men Of its time and country placed a high value, and which must therefore assist us to the knowledge, not indeed of all the remarkable events of past ages, but still of their most important results.

Book Description
"It is not less certain that monuments and remains of antiquity, other than literary, have a just claim to be considered as indirect sources for the same historical result." -Christian Thomsen, Guide to Northern Archeology Guide to Northern Archeology (1848) by Christian Thomsen is a comparative history of craftsmanship and technology. Instead of considering the authenticity of individual objects, however, Thomsen looked at the way objects can define the ages of prehistory (stone, bronze, and iron) and he argued for the value of objects as historical sources. The purpose of his book was to explain the comparative methodology he had developed as the Curator of the National Museum of Denmark, while giving credit to the support he received from the Royal Society of Northern Archeology by taking their case to a wider European scholarly audience.
