Archaeology and False Antiquities is a book written by Robert Munro and published in 1908. The book explores the history of archaeology and the problem of false antiquities, which are objects that are created to deceive people into thinking they are genuine artifacts from the past. Munro discusses the various methods used to create false antiquities, including forgery, restoration, and fabrication. He also examines the motivations behind the creation of these objects, such as financial gain, nationalistic pride, and academic recognition. The book includes numerous examples of false antiquities from different historical periods and regions of the world, as well as the methods used to detect them. Munro argues that the study of false antiquities is important for understanding the history of archaeology and the ways in which people have sought to manipulate the past for their own purposes. Overall, Archaeology and False Antiquities is a fascinating and informative book for anyone interested in the history of archaeology and the problem of forgery in the field.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
