the traces of intruded art. 7Yie aim has been to a large extent effectually 

 accomplished^ and such an impulse given to archceological research, that in 

 this new edition the whole of the work has had to be remodelled. Fully a 

 third of it has been entirely re-written ; and the remaining portions have 

 undergone so minute a revision as to render it in many respects a new 

 work. The number of pictorial illustrations has been greatly increased, 

 and several of the former plates and woodcuts have been re-engraved 

 from new drawings. This is divided into four Parts. Part I. deals 

 with The Primeval or Stone Period : Aboriginal Traces, Sepulchral 

 Memorials, Dwellings, and Catacombs, Temples, IVeapons, etc. etc. ; 

 Part II. The Bronze Period : The Metallurgic Transition, Primitive 

 Bronze, Personal Ornaments, Religion, Arts, and Domestic Habits, with 

 other topics ; Part III. The Iron Period : The Introduction of Iron, The 

 Roman Invasion, Strongholds, etc. etc.; Part IV. The Christian Period : 

 Historical Data, the Nome's Law Relics, Primitive and Mediceval 

 Ecclesiology, Ecclesiastical and Miscellaneous Antiquities. The work is 

 furnished with an elaborate Index. " One of the most interesting, learned, 

 and elegant works we have seen for a long time.' 1 '' WESTMINSTER

 modifying influences which accompany the development of nations and the 

 maturity of a true historic period, in order thereby to ascertain the sources 

 from whence such development and maturity proceed. These researches 

 into the origin of civilization have accordingly been pursued under the belief 

 which influenced the author in previous inquiries that the investigations 

 of the arch&ologist, when carried on in an enlightened spirit, are replete 

 with interest in relation to some of the most important problems of modern
