Main Page The Internet Ancient History Sourcebook has expanded greatly since its creation, and now contains hundred of local files as well as links to source texts throughout the net. See Introduction for an explanation of the Sourcebook's goals. See the Help! page for all the help on research I can offer. Although I am more than happy to receive notes if you have comments on this web site, I cannot answer specific research enquiries [and - for students - I cannot, or rather will not, do your homework.] The Ancient History Sourcebook works as follows: This Main Index page [this page] shows all sections and sub sections. To access the sub-section pages , simply browse the sections below and select the highlighted (white text with blue background) section title on the left. In addition there are two navigation bars on the left of each page for every sub-section For materials added since July 1998 see the New Additions page.

Musée du Louvre Collection database online Registration numbers The most common type of Museum number begins with the year of acquisition. The database standardises these numbers in the form, for example: 1887,0708.2427 (year: comma: block of four numbers - usually representing a month and day: full-stop and final number). In some of these cases a prefix has been added before a number (e.g. If the number you are entering has come from an old catalogue it could appear in the form 1887-7-8-2427. In the case of some two-dimensional works from Asia and the Middle East a full stop may need to be inserted into the final number. The second most common type of Museum number takes the form of one or two letters followed by two numbers. There are also some special cases including, for example, S.2534 (Sheepshanks collection, in which case the number will fall between 1 and 8000). BM or 'Big' numbers These are used in the Department of Ancient Egypt and Sudan and the Department of the Middle East and are just a sequence of numbers.

Aztec Calendar: Today in the Aztec and Maya Calendar New World Encyclopedia Angkor. Naissance d'un mythe - Louis Delaporte et le Cambodge 1842, 12 janvierLouis-Marie Joseph Delaporte est né à Loches, en Touraine. Issu d’un milieu conservateur, il reçut une éducation classique. Son intérêt précoce pour les voyages s’exprime lorsqu’il choisit de faire ses études à l’École navale de Brest, le Borda. Peu à l’aise dans la vie de poste, comme il l’écrit à son père, il semble éprouver quelques difficultés dans ses rapports avec les autres. 1865Le destin des hommes tient souvent à peu de choses ; ce sont les hasards de sa vie de marin qui conduisirent Louis Delaporte en Extrême-Orient. 1866En revanche, la découverte du site d’Angkor va constituer un véritable tournant dans sa vie. La vue des ces ruines étranges me frappa, moi aussi, d’un vif étonnement : je n’admirais pas moins la conception hardie et grandiose de ces monuments que l’harmonie parfaite de toutes leurs parties ... 1878L’Exposition universelle de 1878 allait marquer un tournant dans le devenir de l’art khmer en France. Louis Delaporte prend sa retraite de la marine
