Archeology And False Antiquities is a book written by Robert Munro in 1905. The book is a comprehensive study of the history of archeology and the phenomenon of false antiquities. Munro explores the various methods used by archeologists to uncover ancient artifacts and the challenges they face in distinguishing between genuine and fake objects. He also examines the motives behind the creation of false antiquities, including the desire for profit, nationalistic pride, and the desire to deceive. Munro provides numerous examples of famous forgeries throughout history, such as the Piltdown Man hoax and the Etruscan terracotta warriors. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of archeology and the challenges faced by those who seek to uncover the secrets of the past.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
