Book Description
Excerpt from Scotland in Early Christian Times: The Rhind Lectures in Archaeology-1879 Archeology, or the science of things that are old, embraces the systematic knowledge of the forms, dimensions, composi tion, associations, and geographical distribution of the objects which it studies. This knowledge, which is precise in its nature, and is derived from examination and comparison of the objects themselves, forms the groundwork of the science. It is purely the product of observation, and there neither is, nor can be, anything of a speculative or hypothetical nature included in it. Upon this groundwork of exact knowledge there may be raised a superstructure of conclusions as to the relations of these objects to ancient conditions and customs of human life, which they more or less clearly disclose and in this, its widest scope, archaeology aims at producing a history of man by his works, of art by its monuments, of culture by its manifestations, and of civilisation by its developments.
