A SIGNIFICANT WORK EDITED AND WITH EMENDATIONS AND IMPORTANT CONTRIBUTIONS BY DAVID HOGARTH, ONE OF THE GREAT ARCHEOLOGISTS OF THE 19TH AND EARLY 20TH CENTURIES. The essays show in what ways and to what degree the results of archaeological research may affect the views of those who, without special archaeological knowledge, concern themselves with the antiquity of civilization. Chapters contain significant findings from the Hebrew, Classical and Christian histories and are concerned with the Biblical, Egyptian, Assyrian, Greek, Roman and Christian worlds. D.G. Hogarth, was the British archaeologist and scholar associated with T. E. Lawrence and Arthur Evans. He was Keeper of the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford from 1909 to 1927. Commissioned into the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve during the First World War, he served with the Naval Intelligence Division. During 1916, he was the acting director of the Arab Bureau, and was later responsible for delivering the Hogarth message. In 1886, Hogarth was elected a Fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford. Between 1887 and 1907, he traveled to excavations in Cyprus, Crete, Egypt, Syria, Melos, and Ephesus (the Temple of Artemis). On the island of Crete, he excavated the Zakros and Psychro Cave. Hogarth was named director of the British School at Athens in 1897 and occupied the position until 1900. He was the keeper of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford from 1909 until his death in 1927. In 1915, during the First World War, Hogarth was commissioned with the temporary rank of lieutenant commander in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve and joined the Geographical Section of the Naval Intelligence Division. Professor Hogarth was appointed the acting director of the Arab Bureau, for a time during 1916 when Sir Mark Sykes went back to London. Hogarth was close with T. E. Lawrence and worked with Lawrence to plan the Arab Revolt. Sykes befriended Hogarth, who had described India Government as believing they had a moral imperative to the British Raj as the best form of government and could not fail in their duty to impose it on a Province of Mesopotamia. The Arabists rejected this proposal vehemently; Sykes taking Hogarth's research as evidence of the uniquely different situation in the protectorate. The archaeologists knew it was clear that the Raj had no understanding of the different conditions, that there needed to be a specific "Arab Policy" for what had become a frontier of empire. Hogarth returned to Oxford and the Ashmolean Museum in June 1919.From 1925 to 1927 he was President of the Royal Geographical Society. In 1896, Hogarth was elected a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society (FRGS). In 1905, he was elected a Fellow of the British Academy (FBA), the United Kingdom's national academy for the humanities and social sciences. In 1917, he was made a Commander of the Order of the Nile by the Sultan of Egypt,and awarded the Founder's Medal of the Royal Geographical Society. In the 1918 New Year Honours, he was appointed a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George (CMG) for his efforts during the First World War. In 1919, he was awarded the Order of Nahda (Hejaz) 2nd class by Hussein bin Ali, Sharif of Mecca.
