    Notes: The paper which is here offered to the Royal Historical Society, following that of the Khita-Peruvian in 1877, and the early English in 1878, brings the results of new investigations to bear on the history of early or Turanian (Turano-African) culture in the world, and its contact with the Assyrians and consequent decline.

    Notes: England, as we know, has taken its fair share in writing history, as the names of Gibbon and Grote among many others show. The history of the English has not, however, had the same care bestowed upon it, notwithstanding the work of such men as Kemble, Sharon Turner, Palgrave, Freeman, and others. What we commonly have is a history of this island of Britain beginning with Welsh and Belgians, and setting forth the landing and wars of the Romans Thus Earl Russell, the President of this Society, was right some years ago in saying that the history of the English themselves has yet to be written.

    Notes: The Book of Generations, in chap. x. of Genesis, states that Canaan was a son of Ham, and consequently brother of Cush, of Mizraim, and of Phut. This is given again in the First Book of Chronicles, chap, i., ver. 8. Cush (Gen. x. 10) held Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. The verse says: “And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel and Erech,” etc. Again, verse 11 says: “Out of that land went forth Asshur and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah and Resen, between Nineveh and Calah; the same is a great city.” Asshur (verse 22) was a son of Shem. Cush, therefore, was considered to be a dweller in Babylonia, and not in Africa. This is consistent with Havilah, son of Cush, being Havilah, chap, ii., ver. 11. Of the rivers of Eden, “the name of the first is Pison, that is it which encompasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.” Khavilah has been well conjectured to be Kholkis or Colchis, and the river the Pshani, which, as I have pointed out in the Georgian languages, still means a river.

    Notes: This paper will embrace the old question of the Picts in Scotland which has been so much discussed, and also the newer question of the inhabitants of Britain preceding the Celtic invasion of these islands which has already been brought by me before the Society. This newer subject now meets with more attention on the part of historians and other men of science.

    Notes: My historical investigations for some years have particularly borne upon the relations of America to the Old World. They refer to the questions whether the populations and civilisations of the New World are there born and indigenous, or whether they are imported from the other hemisphere, and therefore in no respect distinct.

    Notes: The portion of the history of Britain now to be dealt with has hitherto been regarded as rather belonging to ethnology than to history, as prehistoric. It has consequently been supplied from barrows, from skulls, and from pottery, and has been largely matter of speculation and conjecture, supplied according to the fancy or prepossessions of each individual author. The greater part of what has been written turns upon Stonehenge and on supposed Druidical practices.

    Notes: I. The question of who were the Ligurians has occupied many, and remained obscure. Many and many years ago it occupied me, and about the year 1869 it led me to engage in a close investigation of a possible Dravidian connexion. This brought me some remarkable results, but for reasons not then known to me they led to no decision. The names of rivers in Liguria and Northern Italy responded to the Tamil names for river, water, &c., but the true cause was that such names are not Dravidian in their origin, and that the river names were not given by the Ligurians, but according to a uniform law, recognisable from Hispania or Britannia to further India, and it may be said to America.

    Notes: Although the results in this paper may appear to be novel, and are largely derived from sources newly opened up, in reality they are only the sequence of previous investigations. Long since there were published by me in the Journal of the Palestine Exploration Fund, and of the Anthropological Institute, and also in the Transactions of this Royal Historical Society, a list of place names. These tables showed the identity of the ancient names of cities in the Old World from India to Britain, and of those in the New World in wide regions.

    Notes: [Auszug] WITH regard to the culture of savages in Brazil the evidence of facts will be more esteemed by Mr. Tylor than the opinion of Dr. Martius, for Mr. Tylor has brought together a wealth of facts on the history and conditions of culture. There is one class of facts which to my mind bears ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IN his article in NATURE, vol. xxiv. p. 244, Mr. Alfred Wallace has given one of the keys to the formation of speech language. He says, “When we name the mouth or lips we use labials; for tooth and tongue, dentals; for the nose, and things relating to it, nasal sounds; and this peculiarity is ...
