HISTORY OF ANCIENT POTTERY, EGYPTIAN, ASSYRIAN, GREEK, ETRUSCAN, AND ROMAN - S. BIRCH

Excerpt from History of Ancient Pottery, Egyptian, Assyrian, Greek, Etruscan, and Roman The present Work was commenced many years ago as one of a series on the subject of the history of the Pottery of all nations. It comprises the principal features in the history of the art, from the most ancient period till the decadence of the Roman Empire. In the Oriental division it embraces the pottery of Egypt and Assyria - the two great centres of primæval civilisation. In classical antiquity it treats on the pottery of Greece and Rome; it ends by a concise account of that of the Celtic and Teutonic nations. A work has been long required which should embody the general history of the fictile art of the ancients, combine the information scattered through many memoirs and treatises, and give one continuous account of the rise and progress of this branch of archæology. The technical portion of the subject has been already elaborately treated by M. Brongniart, and others, and the relation of this art to literature has been the repeated object of the investigations of the learned for the last two centuries.
