Posthumous collection of archaeological essays by the Edinburgh physician Sir James Young Simpson, edited by John Stuart and published in Edinburgh in 1872 for antiquarian readers, covering Roman military remains and early carved stones. Wood-engraved line plates render stones, inscriptions and incised markings in dense parallel hatching, giving designers tonal engraved textures and outline drawings of worn carved surfaces.
