Book Description
Excerpt from Surveying for Archaeologists, 1909 In the following pages no attempt has been made to write a complete treatise, but rather to deal with the fundamental points on which, as I know, many archaeologists who are now taking up the study of the orientation of ancient British monuments are seeking information. The archaeologist must not imagine that a complete grasp of all the computation methods referred to is necessary before he commences operations; good work can be done by collecting the data required by means of simple instruments, leaving the subsequent calculations to others. I have thought it desirable to say more about the astronomical conditions involved than is generally to be found in elementary treatises on surveying for the reason that the changes in the position of the sun and stars from century to century are involved in the new inquiries. Although this work is chiefly concerned with British monuments, I have added a final chapter showing how the methods and principles involved in the measures of alignments can be applied, for the purpose of preliminary inquiries, in other latitudes. There are now several schools of Archaeology and other organisations interested in ancient sites and monuments away from home. I firmly believe that when they add the exact study of the orientation of temples and palaces to their other inquiries, important information as to building dates will be secured.
