  • The Technique of the Boyne Carvings

    Open AccessO G S CrawfordARTICLEProceedings of the Prehistoric…1956

    The prudent contributor to a Festschrift will select some subject about which he thinks he knows as much as the professor who is to receive it. That is peculiarly difficult here because of the vast range of Professor Childe's knowledge, both in time and space, far exceeding the present contributor's. This Note is offered as a grateful tribute from one of the many who have been intellectually enriched by his writings and encouraged by his devotion…

  • How things are made and done

    Open AccessO G S CrawfordARTICLEAntiquity1955Citada por: 1

    A few years ago I was talking to a friend of mine in our club. It was obvious that he had, as we say, something on his mind. 'Do you realize', he said, 'that in this technological age we still have no comprehensive history of technology?' I paused for a moment, but before I could speak he had answered my thoughts. 'I don't mean economic history-there are plenty of books about that; technology and economics are quite different'. I asked him to exp…

  • A Century of Air-photography

    Open AccessO G S CrawfordARTICLEAntiquity1954Citada por: 1

    When I wrote a short history of archaeological and other air-photography in 1928 the earliest examples quoted were those taken by Major Elsdale between 1880 and 1887 ; this information was given me by the late Colonel Sir Charles Arden-Close, himself a pioneer of the craft. Since then two earlier instances have come to light. The Science Museum, South Kensington, has exhibited an air-photograph of Boston, Mass., taken in 1877 ; but unfortunately …

  • The Symbols carved on Stonehenge

    Open AccessO G S CrawfordARTICLEAntiquity1954Citada por: 1

    Last summer an archaeologist, Mr R. J. C. Atkinson, taking photographs at Stonehenge, made a most remarkable discovery. He was preparing to photograph a name carved on the inward-facing (northwest) face of Stone 53, one of the Great Horseshoe Trilithons; for this purpose he had remained there after 5 o'clock on July 10th, waiting for the sun to move round and shine on it. Looking not directly at the stone itself but at the image on the glass of h…

  • Cerdic's Landing-place

    Open AccessO G S CrawfordARTICLEAntiquity1952

    In 1931 I wrote an article maintaining the thesis that Cerdic's ora, where in 495 Cerdic and in 514 the West Saxons landed, was to be located near Totton at the head of Southampton Water; and that he advanced westwards along an old track called the Cloven Way to Cerdic's ford, which is certainly to be put at Charford on the Salisbury Avon. I still think that the latter part of the advance must have been along the Cloven Way which led to the ford …

  • Archaeological History

    Open AccessO G S CrawfordARTICLEAntiquity1951

    These three books between them nearly cover the whole effective range of British archaeology, from the gropings and fumblings of medieval monks to the era of pollen analysis and radio-carbon. There is a gap of nearly a century, however, between the death of Stukeley in 1765 and the beginning of Dr Daniel's hundred years. That is the unfortunate but inevitable result of adopting the rigid yard-stick of a century for measuring what in fact is the g…

  • Some Medieval Theories about the Nile

    O G S CrawfordARTICLEGeographical Journal1950Citada por: 3

    This paper deals with some of the theories about the course of the Nile which were held during the late medieval and early modern period. The title needs amplification; it was difficult to find one that would be both concise and at the same time adequately descriptive. The idea of writing the paper came from Dr. Mannoni's publication of the mid-fifteenth-century map of Abyssinia called Egyptus Novelo; J and that led to an examination of Fra Mauro…

  • Some Linear Earthworks in the Danube Basin

    O G S CrawfordARTICLEGeographical Journal1950

    Hungary, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria and Romania, and it is unlikely that any reader of this journal will have an opportunity of visiting them for many years to come. If he should visit any, he will do a service to archaeology in writing even the briefest account, noting especially two things: the terminal points and the direction faced (i.e. on which side of the bank the ditch is). Short of a visit, the ground could be prepared by a clear description o…

  • I.— The British Section of the Ravenna Cosmography

    Open AccessI A Richmond, O G S CrawfordARTICLEArchaeologia1949

    The compilation of the Ravenna Cosmography, as we have it, belongs to the late seventh century. It was done by a cleric of Ravenna, for one Odo, whom he describes as ‘dearset brother’ and ‘friend’, and the object of the work is to furnish a list of the countries, towns, and rivers of the known world, compiled from Greek, Roman, and Gothic authors. The author, who nowhere states his name, observes that a list was chosen as the form for the work, f…
