- W2607324869 abstract "PREFACEThe Department of Classics and Ancient History Antiquities Collection dates from 1963 when the University of Queensland donated £500 for the acquisition of two Greek vases. In most years since then comparable grants have been made available, so that it has been possible to build up a modest but fairly representative teaching collection. Members of the Department are grateful to the University for its support, to the Alumni Association which has also made sizeable donations (including the fine Greek helmet), and to those students and other benefactors who have given items to the collection. Especially worthy of mention is the bequest from Dr. Stanley Castlehow, who taught in the Department for over forty years and died in 1970, leaving a splendid gift to be used for the purchase of antiquities.This book is partly a catalogue giving descriptions and measurements, and where known, references to other similar pieces. It is also intended as an introduction to those who know little about the types of antiquities represented in the collection, and a select bibliography is included for those who might like to seek further information. Finally, it is envisaged that the book will be a useful guide for stude:.1ts of Ancient History, and for many visitors who see the items on display.The greatest problems of identification are associated with the Woite Collection, acquired from Mr. L. Woite of Canberra in 1966. The Australian National University and the University of New England each acquired similar material from the same source. The provenance and dates of the pieces in the Woite Collection are often difficult to establish as much of the coarser pottery has few distinguishing features. One can rarely be sure of the origin of such pieces out of context. However, most of the Woite Collection appears to be late Classical and Hellenistic, and much of it apparently comes from Sicily, especially the Gela area, and perhaps southern Italy.Measurements of all objects are in centimetres, and are maximum unless otherwise specified. For the pottery, glass, and bronze vessels these are the measurements of the bowl or body, including foot and lip, but excluding lugs and handles and other similar protuberances.References towards the top of an entry refer to catalogue or other published reference concerning the particular piece. References at the end of an entry are to similar examples of the shape or style, or to other information that may be relevant to the piece ." @default.
