Origines Divisianae or The Antiquities of the Devizes is a book written by James Davis in 1754. The book is a collection of familiar letters written to a friend in the years 1750 and 1751, which explore the history and antiquities of the town of Devizes in England. Davis delves into the town’s ancient origins, its Roman past, and its role in the English Civil War. He also examines the town’s architecture, including its churches, castles, and manor houses, and discusses the lives of notable figures from the town’s history. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of Devizes and is an invaluable resource for historians and anyone interested in the history of England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
