  • John Edward Marr – Wikipedia
    John Edward Marr – Wikipedia https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Edward_Marr aus Wikipedia, der freien Enzyklopädie John Edward Marr (* 14. Juni 1857 in Poulton-le-Sands; † 1. Oktober 1933) war ein britischer Geologe und Paläontologe. Marr interessierte sich schon als Jugendlicher für Geologie, nachdem er ein kambrisches Fossil bei einem Urlaub in Caernarfon in Nordwales entdeckte, das dann nach ihm benannt wurde. An der Royal Lancaster Grammar School nahm ihn sein Lehrer R. H. Tiddeman auf geologische Exkursionen mit. Er studierte ab 1875 mit einem Stipendium (Exhibitioner) Geologie am St. John´s College der Universität Cambridge, wo er bei Thomas George Bonney und Thomas McKenny Hughes studierte, noch als Student erste Veröffentlichungen hatte und 1878 mit Bestnoten abschloss. 1881 wurde er Fellow des St. John´s College, und 1882 erhielt er den Sedgwick Preis für Untersuchungen über die Fossilsammlung von Joachim Barrande aus dem Silur Böhmens, korrigierte dessen Stratigraphie und führte das Auftauchen jüngerer Fossilien im älteren Silur auf Verwerfungen im Gestein zurück, im Gegensatz zur Ansicht Barrandes, der sich dafür aussprach, dass die fossilen Arten gleichzeitig lebten. Seit dieser Zeit galt er auch als Autorität für das Paläozoikum. Ab 1886 war er University Lecturer in Cambridge, und 1917 war er als Nachfolger von Hughes Woodwardian Professor für Geologie in Cambridge. 1930 wurde er emeritiert. Marr forschte intensiv im Lake District, mit ersten Veröffentlichungen bereits 1878. Charles Doolittle Walcott benannte ein häufiges Fossil des Burgess-Schiefer, Marrella splendens, nach Marr.[1] 1900 erhielt er die Lyell-Medaille und 1914 die Wollaston-Medaille. Er war seit 1891 Mitglied (Fellow) der Royal Society, deren Royal Medal er 1930 erhielt.

  • Former Fellows Biographical Index Part
    Former Fellows of The Royal Society of Edinburgh 1783 – 2002 Biographical Index Part One ISBN 0 902 198 84 X Published July 2006 © The Royal Society of Edinburgh 22-26 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2PQ BIOGRAPHICAL INDEX OF FORMER FELLOWS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF EDINBURGH 1783 – 2002 PART I A-J C D Waterston and A Macmillan Shearer This is a print-out of the biographical index of over 4000 former Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh as held on the Society’s computer system in October 2005. It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

  • Palaeolithic British Isles
    World Archaeology at the Pitt Rivers Museum: A Characterization edited by Dan Hicks and Alice Stevenson, Archaeopress 2013, page 169-215 9 Palaeolithic British Isles Alison Roberts 9.1 Introduction When the Pitt Rivers Museum (PRM) was founded in 1884, the study of the Palaeolithic period in Europe (c. 750,000–8,000 BCE) was already well established. The Palaeolithic has long been recognised as being a subject of interest for the PRM, both as a key element in the study of the human past, and also as part of the comparative study of human technology. This Chapter begins with a brief summary of the PRM’s Palaeolithic collections from the British Isles (9.2), before providing a region-by-region account of the British material, and its significance and potential (9.3). Following a brief consideration of the PRM’s collections of naturally perforated fossil sponges (9.4), concluding comments are provided in section 9.5. 9.2 Overview of British Palaeolithic Material in the Pitt Rivers Museum The PRM’s collection from Palaeolithic Britain is large. Some 3,714 database records represent c. 5,661 objects from some 250 sites and findspots, most with some associated contextual information. These include c. 286 objects from the PRM founding collection, from early recognised Palaeolithic sites in southern and southwestern England and East Anglia, as well as from the sites in Acton, London investigated and published by Pitt-Rivers (Lane Fox 1869, 1872), and from other sites in the London area. The size of the collection reflects the interest of successive PRM curators and researchers in the subject, and the close relationships between the fields of anthropology and Palaeolithic archaeology at the PRM during the 20th century.
