S cl., $1.25. Having briefly sketched out the methods by which the archæologist arrives at his conclusions, the author proceeds to show how far the history of the early Christian Church in Great Britain can be elucidated by a careful

examination of the vestiges it has left behind it, in the shape of ecclesiastical structures, sepulchral monuments and portable relics. The relative functions of the historian and the archæologist are clearly defined. The writer has also written Early Christian symbolism in Great Britain and Ireland," a volume of Rhind lectures.
