Sir John Evans Centenery Project
In 2003 the Ashmolean Museum instituted the Sir John Evans Centenary Project to fully document and catalogue Sir John's collection and archive and to make the resulting resource accessible through the Internet by the centenary of Evans's death in 2008. The documentary archive was arranged and catalogued by a professional archivist in 2003-4. This catagloue is available on the Access to Archives website. The project is now exploring the intellectual network to which Sir John Evans belonged through his international correspondence. From 2005 to 2008 the project will futher investigate Evans's international collecting activities and his contacts. This website will be further updated as the project progresses between 2005 and 2008. Find out more about: |
