I had already dealt with this upland district in two chapters in my " Book of the West, vol. i., Devon." But in their opinion this wild and wondrous region deserved more particular treatment than I had been able to accord to it in the limited space at my disposal in the above-mentioned book. I have now entered with some fulness, but by no means exhaustively, into the subject ; and for those who desire a closer acquaintance with, and a more precise guide to the several points of interest on "the moor," I would indicate three works that have preceded this.

  • Notes on Dartmoor Kistyaens
    NOTES ON DARTMOOR KISTYAENS. BY R,OBEBT BURNARD. (Iiead at Barnstaple, JuIy, 1890.) "I(rsrvAEN," from the Cornu-Ce\lic C,ist-uey?1, or Cist-ari,n,, Cymric C'ist-faen, signifles a stone box. These stone boxes are of an oblong square shape, and are formed of fbur slabs of stone for sides and. ends, with a fifth as a cover. This was covered by a barrow, and surrounded rvith a circle of vertically set stones. In cases of iuhumation the body was placed in the kist in a contracted position; or if crematecl, the ashes were deposited in an urn. The whole of the kistvaens examined. thus far lie longitu- dinally north and south, or with variations east and. west of these points, the object evidently being that the remains should face the sun. AII thab are known have been openecl, and bheir contents have disappeared, almost rvithout a vestige of a record to assist the antiquary. The popular notion that they con- tained articles of value still survives in some of the nalnes by which they are at present known to the moormen, such, for instance, as rlotuey pits, money boaes, and crocks of gold,. Obhers again know them as caaes, Roman grcwes,stona graaes, and slteap walls, The idea thab they contained articles of value is a very old one I for we find as early as L321 a grafi was made by Edward II. for searching certain barrows in Devonshire.l I\{any of the Dartmoor kistvaens 'were probably opened with the same object centuries since.

  • Locating an Antiquarian Initiative in a Late 19Th Century Colonial
    th Basak, B. 2020. Locating an Antiquarian Initiative in a Late 19 Century Colonial Bofulletin the History of Archaeology Landscape: Rivett-Carnac and the Cultural Imagining of the Indian Sub-Continent. Bulletin of the History of Archaeology, 30(1): 1, pp. 1–9. DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/bha-610 RESEARCH PAPER: ASIA/PACIFIC Locating an Antiquarian Initiative in a Late 19th Century Colonial Landscape: Rivett-Carnac and the Cultural Imagining of the Indian Sub-Continent Bishnupriya Basak In this paper I seek to understand antiquarian practices in a colonial context in the Indian sub-continent with reference to J.H. Rivett-Carnac who was a member of the Bengal Civil Service. Covering varied subjects like ‘ancient cup marks on rocks,’ spindle whorls, votive seals or a solitary Buddha figure, Rivett- Carnac’s writings reflect an imagining of a native landscape with wide-ranging connections in myths, symbolisms and material cultures which cross-cut geographical borders. I show how an epistemology of comparative archaeology was formed through the ways in which he compared evidence recorded from different parts of India to those documented in Great Britain and northern Europe. This was held together by ideas of tribal/racial migrations. I am arguing that a distinctive form of antiquarianism was unfolding in an ambiguous, interstitial space which deconstructs any neat binaries between the colonizer and the colonized. Recent researches have argued for many antiquarianisms which this paper upholds. With his obsession of cup marks Rivett-Carnac built a new set of interconnections in late 19th century Britain where the Antiquity of man was the pivot around which debates and theories circulated.

  • Dartmoor Barrows and Kistvaens
    DARTMOOR BARROWS AND KISTVAENS FORM AND STRUCTURE OF BARROWS BARROW is essentially an artificial mound raised on the site of one or more interments. Varying with the period and with the race erecting the barrow, it may in plan be either round, Along (i.e. elliptical or ovoid), or may assume a more complex form, such for instance as that of a ship. All known Devonshire barrows are of the round type. The diameter at the base of the Devonshire barrows varies from 9 or 10 to 120 ft and over. The present height above the surrounding ground varies from a barely perceptible mound to a heap 12 ft high, and possibly more. Although very small barrows frequently prove disappointing on excavation, it must not be thought that the probable yield of any can be estimated pro rata to the size. The mounds are made in various ways and of varying materials. Where stone of convenient size was readily obtainable the barrow usually became a cairn formed of stone only; where stone was practic­ ally absent earth and soil were used; where stone was sparingly obtain­ able the centre of the barrow is frequently a small cairn, and this is covered with soil to a greater or less depth. CAIRNS These are more usually found in the Dartmoor area, although by no means infrequent elsewhere. Off Dartmoor barrows constructed wholly of stone are usually of small size. A complete list of the known cairns would be much too long for insertion here. On Dartmoor, Drizzlecombe, Pen Beacon, and Three Barrows Tor yield excellent examples of the larger size; while small examples are found at Cosdon, Raddick Hill, Shaugh Lake, and else­ where.

  • To. Jhe.List-Of Hypotheses Contained in My First Paper, I "Fro*
    THE STONE ROWS OF DARTMOOR. Prnr III. BY R. N. WORTE, X'.G,S. (Rmd at South Molton, August, 1894.) Srrcr the last meeting- of the Association much important material has been added to our knowledge of the Stoni nows of Dartmoor, and among the additions to"the list is one oi the finest and probably most complete of the whole series. Th; total number now recorded, excluding doubtful cases, is 37, against the 25 known when my firsi paper *a, pr"pared.i Jho.ug! the- possible area of discouer.i Las beco-me'much Iimited to what it was, such a find as that of the fine ,o, o" Watern Down, encourages the hope that the muster roll is not yet filled. At the same time, it is now more than ever certain that some, if not many-rows, have disappeared. These may in "foo, part te represented by such fragments-two, three, o, standrng stones or so, more or less in line_as we find here and there on the Moor, but are hardly capable of clefinite ideutification.

    SIXTY-SIXTH REPORT ON BARROWS BY R. HANSFORD WORTH, RECORDER -\rox Vanrv, above Brent Moor Hoctse. A kistvaen which was referred to in the last report ; I :orv add details as to position, Devon, six inch O.S. cxiii, -r.8., lon. 3o-5r'-35", Iat. 5oo-27'-38|'. It is on the isht bank of the Avon, about 50 feet below the intake weir f the Kingsbridge and Salcombe water-board. Since this .-.-eir is not at present marked on the O.S. the following :articulars may be useful:-a little stream which flows past :he south end of Riders Rings is a tributary of the Aaon, which :: joins on the right bank. A hundred and seventy feet below :re junction and a little under fifty feet west of the west bank .i the Aaon lies the kistvaen. Although the view given in ::e sixty-fifth report gives the appearance of a fairly well :reserved kist, the removal of one sidestone has so far :isturbed the structure that a plan would give Jittle informa- :ion additional to the view; the end stones, in especial lean -.-ery considerably. The view now given (Plate r) will show :he extent to which the stones have been disturbed. The -ne feature which can be recovered with accuracy is the :irection of length which is N.6r"W. The kistvaen stands in a small cairn which, as is occasionally found, consists of :elatively large stones. Being so near the river it is necessarily on low ground; :his is by no means unique ; well up the Langcombe Brooh, -n the valley of the Plym, there are two kists of which one, :rolv commonly called Crims Craue, is but r8o feet north of :he stream, its companion lies rz5 feet south of the brook.

  • The Dartmoor Stone Circles
    THE DARTMOOR STONE CIRCLES STONE CIRCLE, in western archaeology, is to be distinguished from the hut-circle, which is the foundation of a dwelling, and the retaining circle, which is an adjunct of the grave, associated Awith the cairn or barrow (see pp. 182-191). The purpose of the hut-circle is fully understood, and the associations of the retaining circle are known, but not its ritual intent, if any. The stone circle, according to our terminology, is larger than either the hut or any but a few of the retaining circles, unfitted by structure for use as a habitation, unassociated, as far as can be ascertained, with graves. There is some evidence that large fires were lit within the stone circles, but no evidence as to the purpose of those fires. To avoid all suggestion of knowledge which is not ours, we have taken the trivial name ‘stone circle’, and applied it as a specific name to those circles of stone which are neither huts, retaining circles, nor pounds. Characteristic examples are the circles at Brisworthy (T.D.A., Vol. 35, p. 99), Buttern Hill, Scorhill, and Sherberton, and the ‘Grey Wethers’. Others survive at Whitemoor, Fernworthy, Down Ridge, Merrivale, and Langstone Moor. SCORHILL CIRCLE Scorhill circle has long been known, and often described, but, as often happens, the descriptions have gathered more each from the other than has always accorded with accuracy, and where they have not borrowed they are inconsistent. As far as I know the circle has never been carefully planned and the plan published, an omission the more surprising in that it has been fully recognized as one of our prin­ cipal Dartmoor monuments, indeed, most writers have agreed with Rowe in the importance which they have attributed to it.

    Translating Articles in the Humanities and Social Sciences. Par Franck Barbin. Le 18 novembre 2014 Image 1 : Cartoon by Priestman Atkinson from the Punch Almanack (1885). Aim of the study : debunking stereotypes on translation. My study mainly consists in analysing precise examples rather than developing long theories, as the readers of this journal are not translation experts, but would benefit from a translator’s viewpoint for their own research. The study focuses on written articles and leaves oral communications aside because they entail different translation issues (e.g. ways to address an English-speaking audience, simpler syntax, or words easy to pronounce for a non-native English speaker). The corpus of the article is extracted from my own experience as a freelance translator and tackles different fields, i.e. management, law, psychology and even geography. All the examples are either translated from English to French or from French to English. My study aims to debunk misconceptions about translation, more specifically in - 1 / 18 - academic environments. I chose to divide my presentation in six main stereotypes : 1) Translating is easier and quicker than writing. Wrong. Translating is a long-term process which involves, among other things, language skills, content-based knowledge, appropriating the rationale and ideas of the author, and re-writing the whole article, the translator becoming a co-author of the article. 2) Machine translation yields good results. Wrong. Even if machine translation is a useful, time-saving tool for translators and researchers, it cannot replace human translators who are still needed at least for post-editing. 3) Literal translation ensures the quality of the translation.Wrong .

    THE DART]\4OOR MENHIRS BY R. HANSFORD WORTH TnBnB are on Dartmoor certain stand.ing stones, unwrought,. undoubtedlv erected by man, and froin their position" in association with lines or circles of lesser standin$ stones, or in isolation, presumedly of significance at the tiine of tireir erection. Such stones have bcen v-ariously called:-Menhirs, Loug_ stones, Standing Stones and Rock-Pillays. They are by rio means peculiar either to Dartmoor or to Devon. It seems desirable to discriminate between such standing stones, which are marked by their relative dimensions and special position, and those which form the mass of such remains as stone rous arrd stone circles. And this although the usage.of_some authors is to speak of every member of"a ro\r, or circle as a menhir, whatever its aitual size. In practice such discrimination involves no dif&cultv on Dart- moor, nor any niceties of artificial classification. Of the various terms available, Menhir has the sanction of long usage, and the advantage that tve can share it with the French antiquaries, although in France the tendency is to a Iess restricted use, and a stone rorv mat- be d.esiribed as consisting wholly of menhirs, especialll'where the size of the .. stones is such that each mar- fairlr- be described as a long_ stone ". The Dartmoor menhirs mav be classified under two, headings, (r) the .isolated a.,d " self suffrcient,,, and (zl those associated with stone rows. Isorerr,o MBNHrns There are few isolated menhirs on Dartmoor ; trvo certain examples still stand, and tlvo as to which some doubt is possible.
