From Wikipedia: "Mary Zelia Pease Philippides (January 16, 1906 January 23, 2009) was an American archaeologist and librarian. She was librarian at the American School for Classical Studies in Athens from 1958 to 1971. Early life and education//Pease was born in New York City, the daughter of Lewis Frederic Pease and Laurette Eustis Potts Pease. Her mother was a social worker; her father was an organist and music librarian,[1] and taught at the New England Conservatory of Music and at the Yale School of Music.[2] She attended the Chapin School, and a girls' school in Switzerland, and graduated from Bryn Mawr College in 1927.[3][4] She worked on excavations in Greece after college, and completed doctoral studies in archaeology in 1933.[5] Her dissertation was titled "A Catalogue of the Greek Vases in the Collection of Albert Gallatin in New York City".[6][7] // Career Pease taught at Bryn Mawr College[8] and at the Shipley School as a young woman.[5] She was book review editor for the American Journal of Archaeology in the 1940s.

She was an archaeologist who spent several residencies in Athens until she was appointed librarian at the American School of Classical Studies in Athens in 1958. She retired in 1971.[6] She was one of several Bryn Mawr and Wellesley alumni involved in excavations in Greece in the 1930s, a group that included Hetty Goldman, Dorothy Cox, and Virginia Randolph Grace.[10]". The penciled underlines and notes have been left in the book, being from the distinguished previous owner (the black ink markings in the text are in the same ink which was used in the cursive signing at the top of the title page and which protrude from beneath the imperfect blacking-out). REGARDING THE BOOK ITSELF: From Amazon: (May 16, 2016) "This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it."
