Overview

Excerpt from The Burlington Magazine for Connoisseurs, Vol. 16: Illustrated and Published Monthly; October 1909 to March 1910 Occasionally some deposits of broken pottery happen to be unearthed from a spot where such a find was least expected. The attention of local archaeologists is at once awakened. Diligent searches are made in the civic archives for ancient documents relating to the former existence of the potter's trade in the district. Finally, from the examination of a few boxes of fragments and of a bundle of musty parchments springs up a fresh theory. It has, of course, to be submitted to the public. The account of the discovery is duly printed, and one more monograph is added to the long list of those that we possess already.
