PREHISTORIC ANTIQUITIES 

 OF THE ARYAN PEOPLES; 



By Prof. O. SCHRADER of Jena. 



Translated from the Second German Edition by 

 F. B. JEVONS, M.A., Litt.D. 



In Dr. Schrader's great work is presented to the reader a most able 

 and judicious summary of all recent researches into the Origin and History 

 of those Peoples, Ancient and Modern, to whom has been mainly entrusted 

 the civilisation and culture of the world. 



Dr. Schrader's pictures of the Primeval Indo-European Period : — The 

 Animal Kingdom, Cattle, The Plant-World, Agriculture, Computation of 

 Time, Food and Drink, Clothing, Dwellings, Traffic and Trade, The Culture 

 ■of the Indo-Europeans, and The Prehistoric Monuments of Europe 

 (especially the Swiss Lake -Dwellings), Family and State, Religion, The 

 Original Home — will be found not only of exceeding interest in themselves, 

 but of great value to the Student of History, as throwing light upon 

 later developments.
