ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Given the competing demands of routine museum life, the tackling of a project in the nature of the present volume is not to be lightly undertaken. Many hours of painstaking transcription are demanded, followed by the incorporation of innumerable revisions and refinements as broad structure, essential detail and shades of nuance all emerge. My coauthor Moira Hook has undertaken these tasks with the most admirable dedication, persevering with successive drafts for months and years on end when lesser souls would have faltered. Having collaborated with her on several lesser Museum projects in the past, I have been filled anew with admiration for her generosity of spirit towards the Ashmolean and with gratitude for her friendship. In undertaking the second part of this two-volume set we have, of course, benefited enormously from the efforts of all those who contributed to volume I. Their respective roles in producing the first English version of the early catalogues are fully acknowledged there, but it is a pleasure to reiterate here our debt to all of them. For the present exercise we were fortunate to secure the additional collaboration of Dr Donald Sykes, formerly Principal of Mansfield College, an authority on the Early Christian Church and perforce a good classical linguist. The typescript was also read by Dr Peter Glare of the Oxford Medieval Latin Dictionary project. Although our seventeenthcentury authors were amongst the earliest models for what are now termed museum professionals and were scholars of remarkable range in their own right, they were no Latinists. Dr Sykes and Dr Glare wrestled with the endless grammatical infelicities and obscure constructions that litter their texts, in order to ensure that the translations offered here reflect as closely as possible the meanings of the original inventory. Their work will be greatly valued by those of us whose Latin skills fall far short of those of even Plot and Lhwyd. The task of identifying precisely what is being referred to in some of these texts – particularly those dealing with natural rather than man-made specimens – is a difficult matter for the specialized naturalist, let alone the Latinist, and we have been fortunate in finding colleagues in several fields willing to lend their expertise to the project. Two former curators in the Oxford University Museum of Natural History have come to our aid here: John Davies, a specialist in malacology throughout his career, has brought his knowledge to bear on records of the collection of shells, while Philip Powell, a palaeontologist, authority on Oxfordshire geology and life-long admirer of Edward Lhwyd, has been the best possible adviser on matters relating to fossils and minerals. Dr Malgosia Nowak-Kemp, currently a curator in the zoology department of the same institution, has come to our aid on entries relating to the animal world. Dr Stephen Harris of the University’s Department of Plant Sciences provided much detail, not only on the likely identification of plant specimens listed but also on their current nomenclature and on their all-important uses in pharmacy. Within the Ashmolean our colleague Dr Chris Howgego, Keeper of the Heberden Coin Room has shed light on some of the complexities surrounding the classical coinage, while Professor Nick Mayhew, the Museum’s Deputy Director, gave advice on medieval and modern coins and medals. The contributions of these scholars are embedded everywhere in this volume, although they are hidden from individual recognition by the manner in which the text is presented: we are grateful to all of them for modestly allowing their work to be used in this impersonal way, with a view to streamlining the text for the benefit of the reader. It should be mentioned too that all the contributors were beset by competing responsibilities that at times resulted in their guidance being in the nature of general advice rather than detailed input, so that any residual faults that may be detected in the texts will undoubtedly be attributable to my shortcomings rather than theirs. Dr Jonathan Moffett, head of IT at the Ashmolean, patiently dealt with our periodic computer problems and provided the template for the finallayout,whileallthetimeundergreatpressurefromotherdemandswithintheMuseum. As ever, we are grateful to our colleagues at BAR – Drs David Davison, Wendy Logue and Rajka Makjanić – for their enlightened support and expert production skills. Arthur MacGregor

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION The Vice-Chancellor’s Consolidated Catalogue of 1695 Arthur MacGregor The remarkably astute and comprehensive set of regulations drawn up by Elias Ashmole for the administration of the museum founded in his name in 1683 has been examined in detail elsewhere (see M. Welch in MacGregor 1983, pp. 53-5; Ovenell 1986, pp. 49-52). These rules included provision for compiling a set of catalogues that would comprise between them a complete inventory of the collections, to be divided up amongst the six Visitors nominated to oversee the institution so that each would have responsibility for a specific part of the collection. The texts of the surviving Visitors’ catalogues have been published in Ashmolean Museum: Manuscript Catalogues of the Early Museum Collections, 1683-1886, Part I (2000), referred to henceforth as Part I, where a brief historical account of them will be found on pp. i-ii. Ashmole’s intention was that these inventories should expedite the annual Visitation, ‘each Visitor comparing his Part, and seeing that all Particulars be Safe, and Well-condition’d, and answering to the catalogue’. Included amongst these same regulations was the following proviso (no. 5): That beside the Catalogue, which is to remaine in the Musaeum, another to be in the hands of the Vicechancellor, for the preventing of fraude or embezelment; into wch, at the tyme of the Visitation, all the additions made in the precedent yeare shalbe entred: And that every future Vicechancellor shalbe obliged, to deliver the same Catalogue over to his Successor, when he delivers to him his Bookes & Keyes.

It was anticipated that all the initial cataloguing would be completed within three years of the Ashmolean’s opening, but in the event it was not to be until 1695 (or possibly into 1696) – five years after the resignation of the Museum’s first keeper, Robert Plot, and during the keepership of Plot’s erstwhile assistant, Edward Lhwyd – that the ViceChancellor’s consolidated catalogue was brought to completion. Whereas Plot and Lhwyd had themselves compiled the individual Visitors’ catalogues, the work of combining them in a single volume was delegated to a scrivenor, as revealed by a payment recorded in the Vice-Chancellor’s ‘Computus’ for 1696-7: For transcribing a Catalogue of ye Rarities in ye Musaeum for the use of the Vice-Chancellor and his Successors ... £03 – 00 – 00.

Given the status of the consolidated catalogue as a copy and the fact that those of the original Visitors’ catalogues that survive have already been published, it might be thought that this new transcription and translation would be otiose, but several factors combine to establish its considerable independent value. The most obvious of these is the fact that not all of the Visitors’ catalogues survive today: the texts of two inventories printed in Part I (assigned to the Regius Professor of Medicine and the Principal of Brasenose respectively) were reproduced from later recensions of the mid-eighteenth century and are given here in their earlier form for the first time. Furthermore, the text of the ‘Catalogue of Artificial Works’ assigned to the Junior Proctor in c.1685 is entirely missing from the present inventory, evidently having been excluded by Lhwyd in favour of the catalogue of fossils, minerals and shells, for which responsibility is given here to the Junior Proctor. A modest number of later donations has been added according to the provisions laid down in the regulations: some of these appear in their appropriate places in the inventory, while others are grouped together outside the catalogue sequence; all are included below. The 1695 consolidated catalogue would also play a role in the compiling of the revised Visitors’ catalogues produced during the regime of William Huddesford (keeper 1755-72) (see Part I, p. iii). New numbers were applied at this time to parts of the surviving collections – mostly prompted by depletions rather than new acquisitions – and the new numerical sequence was initially recorded in the consolidated catalogue, a process that is made explicit with an entry reproduced below from fol. 182 (see also fol. 252): ‘Numbers given in the margin are those assigned in the new catalogue, drawn up in 1756’. Numerals entered on that occasion are recorded as inserts in the texts that follow. Further rearrangement of part of the coin collection took place during the regime of Thomas Dunbar (keeper 1815-22), when the blank versos of the numismatic section of the consolidated catalogue were used to generate yet another sequence of numbers, with appropriate cross-references to the earlier inventories. The abbreviated entries compiled on that occasion can add nothing to our understanding of the original text, however, and consequently they are excluded here; none the less, a transcript of these entries has been compiled in electronic form and is held within the Museum. Finally, it should be mentioned that the flowing calligraphic hand of the scrivenor is generally very much easier to follow than the more perfunctory styles of Plot and Lhwyd, whose scripts were understandably more tentative in the first instance and were, moreover, amended from time to time by the Visitors and by later curators. These factors, together with the greater degree of wear-and-tear suffered by the Visitors’ working copies, has made it possible to produce more accurate transcriptions in the present volume than was possible in Part I: the fact that one entry for ‘Rasura Ebonis’ – a shaving of ebony – in Part I has become ‘Rasura Eboris’ – a shaving of ivory – in Part II encapsulates in stark form the fundamental nature of some such reassessments. On the other hand, the scrivenor laboured under many of the same disadvantages that face the present-day i

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION

reader in deciphering Plot and Lhwyd’s hands, and while the possibility would have existed for checking the accuracy of some of the entries it should be remembered that Plot had retired to Kent early in 1691 (where he died five years later) while in 1696 Lhwyd embarked on a five-month journey through Wales – the first of many such extended absences from Oxford – which would have left the copyist to rely to a considerable extent on his own initiative. Although the general standard of accuracy of the consolidated text is of a high order, it is recommended that Part I and Part II should be used together when consulting inventories that appear in both volumes. While the Musæum Tradescantianum of 1656 claims the enduring distinction of being the earliest museum catalogue printed in England, the present text, taken in conjunction with Part I of this two-volume edition of the Ashmolean’s earliest inventories, represents by far the most extensive document of its kind from the seventeenth century, occupying a position that would remain unchallenged until overtaken by Sir Hans Sloane’s multi-volume catalogue of his vast collection that would form the cornerstone of the British Museum, founded in 1753. Until the present time the Ashmolean’s early catalogues – like Sloane’s – have remained unpublished and hence have never exerted the influence they might have done. Certainly in their sheer extent they held the capacity to far outstrip publications such as Nehemiah Grew’s Musaeum Regalis Societatis of 1681 which, in the event, continued to exert an influence until at least the mid-eighteenth century. On the other hand, the limitations of any such publication would also have to be admitted, for progress in the natural sciences, in numismatics and in antiquarian studies ultimately depended on more informative descriptions than those reproduced here, which – apart from occasional references to published sources – lack any element of discussion or analysis (or, indeed, illustration). It is, in the end, essentially an inventory, and its importance must rest on the place it occupies as one of the primary documents in the history of museums and as a monument to the labours of Plot and Lhwyd, who gave new form and significance to the collection of rarities gathered by the Tradescants, transmitted to Oxford by Ashmole along with other materials from his own collection, and enhanced thereafter by the two curators and by numerous other benefactors who combined to create the resource outlined in the following pages. The contents of the Visitors’ catalogues The following notes describe in summary form the contents of the individual Visitors’ catalogues that go to make up the consolidated text. Although they differ essentially in their contents, indicating that the Visitors were each assigned a broad category of material within the Museum displays, there are elements of overlap which suggest that while they were evidently given responsibility for specific groups of cabinets within the exhibition (the whole of which was at first installed within a single gallery on the upper floor), material appropriate to one Visitor occasionally spilled over into the jurisdiction of another. Some of these cabinets are individually named, while the existence of others can be inferred only from the organization of the catalogue. For the coins and medals, and for smaller natural specimens such as shells, fossils and mineral samples, there is some evidence for a fairly orderly disposition within individually marked drawers with internal subdivisions; occasionally within these sequences a few outsized objects may be recorded as having beeen placed on or under the cabinet itself. With other categories, however, it is impossible to reconstruct any organizing principles that may have governed the displays. In some instances, groups of specimens turn up in separate catalogues from the bulk of their kind, presumably indicating that they also occupied separate locations. Other anomalies will be commented upon individually under the discussion that follows. The Book of the Vice-Chancellor (fols. 1-137) It should be noted at the outset that this is the inventory assigned to the Vice-Chancellor in his ex officio capacity as one of the Visitors; it is not to be confused with the consolidated text forming the bulk of the present volume, compiled as a security copy for the Vice-Chancellor in his capacity as the senior officer of the University as a whole. In the catalogue of the numismatic holdings listed here, more than any other part of the collection, the direct influence of the founder on the form and content of the early Ashmolean collections can be detected, for it was in this area (along with books and manuscripts) that Ashmole’s personal interests were centred. Indeed, these predilections had been instrumental in binding Ashmole’s loyalties to the University of Oxford, for it was in recognition of his work in compiling a catalogue of the Bodleian coin cabinet over an eight-year period from 1658 that the University awarded him the degree of Doctor of Medicine in 1669, a gesture that ultimately would draw a reciprocal gift in the form of the founding benefaction of the Museum. The arrival of two distinct tranches of Ashmole’s coin collection is recorded. The first (fols. 1-27) numbers almost 400 entries, ranging from English issues that would have continued to circulate in Ashmole’s own day to early medieval coins and even a few of pre-Conquest date; these were accompanied by sixteenth- and seventeenth-century coins and medals from the Continent, Greek and Roman pieces, and a few Mogul and miscellaneous issues. They were followed in 1687 by a further batch of almost 250 Roman coins, 300 English and Scots issues and thirty miscellaneous ii

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION

pieces, including Ashmole’s ‘præmia honoraria’ – gold chains and medals he received from various foreign princes in recognition of his work on the history of the Order of the Garter. Despite these sizeable benefactions, it is noteworthy that high-value gold coins which undoubtedly would have featured in his personal cabinet are conspicuous by their absence from the lists, no doubt having been retained in the first instance and later sold off at his death. No items are identified here as having come specifically from the Tradescant collection: presumably any that survived were subsumed into Ashmole’s gift. A number of coincidences between coins listed in the Musæum Tradescantianum and those registered in the Vice-Chancellor’s book (and indeed surviving today) have been taken as evidence that this was in fact the case (N. Mayhew in MacGregor 1983, pp. 334-7). A few other collectors are acknowledged as having enriched the numismatic collections, the most important being Thomas Braithwait of Ambleside who contributed over 420 classical coins, mostly Roman (and mostly, according to Plot, ‘found in Westmoreland, & in ye northern partes of England’: see Gunther 1925b, p. 168), together with a few others of diverse origins. Other contributors included Martin Lister, who donated fifty-six Roman coins (fols. 29-34; 132-3); John Fell, Bishop of Oxford and a close friend of Plot, who gave a Swedish coin and an English medal (fol. 28); John Aubrey, whose gifts (mostly Roman) include two groups – presumably hoards – provenanced to Kenchester (Herefordshire) and a site named Heddington, seemingly in Aubrey’s native Wiltshire (fols. 128-31); and smaller gifts from James Ivie (fols. 133-5) and John Newman (fols. 136-7). Within the ancient coins, heavily biased towards Rome, as might be expected in the seventeenth century, a few groups attract particular attention. A small parcel of ‘British’ (i.e. Iron Age) issues makes an appearance (fols. 1516), perhaps identified on the basis of coins from the collection of Sir Robert Cotton, as engraved in the edition of Camden’s Britannia published in 1600, where a selection of types had first been illustrated. (Edmund Gibson’s revised edition of the Britannia was published in 1695, with contributions by Plot and Lhwyd amongst others, so that this text would have been prominent in their minds throughout the previous decade). A number of Anglo-Saxon coins are confidently identified, although one attribution to Uther Pendragon reminds us that these studies were yet in their infancy. As authorities for the classical issues, the principal sources cited were both already over a century old – Hubert Goltz’s Sicilia et Magna Graecia ... ex Antiques Numismatibus restitute (1576) and Fulvio Orsini’s Familiæ Romanæ quæ reperiuntur in antquis Numismatibus (1577); occasional reference is also made to the Duc de Croy’s Regum et Imperatorum Romanorum Numismata (1654). Quite possibly the majority of the coins would have arrived at the Ashmolean with identifications already provided by their respective donors. Incidental references to the locations of certain groups within specific cabinets reveal something of the range of furnishings within the Museum during its first two decades of operation, although we learn little of their detailed character. While references to individual drawers are too scattered to allow conclusions to be drawn about the sizes of the individual cabinets, there appear to have been close on 1,000 coins in the inventory of the first one inventoried. Then comes ‘Mr Ashmole’s cabinet’ (containing the founder’s second gift of coins to the Museum), seemingly holding a further 240 items, another cabinet with 336 coins, and then mention in quick succession of ‘The Dean’s cabinet’ and ‘the best cabinet’ – possibly one and the same piece of furniture. The records are, however, too irregular in their notation to be clear on this matter. In the text reproduced here, translations have been confined to the descriptive elements of the Latin entries, providing an aid to the identification of individual items, together with their subjects and/or issuers. References to items having been gilded (deaurata) are included in translations but standard identifications of materials given as follows in the Latin texts are not translated: Æ (Aereus), of brass [i.e. copper alloy]; Ar (Argenteus), of silver; Au (Aureus), of gold; Pb (Plumbeus), of lead; St (Stanneus), of tin. Similarly, inscriptions and references to types (e.g. ‘Virtus Romanorum’) are neither repeated nor translated; dates given in the Latin entries are again not reproduced, unless it is to expand them into standardized form; multiple styles and titles as indicated by serial initials on coins are minimized in the translations and the formula ‘DG’ (by the Grace of God) introducing such titles on early modern coins is ignored. Where weights are provided (in pennyweights and grains) these too are left to stand in the original. All of these considerations will make it clear that in this section in particular, the transcriptions and translations should be regarded as complementary to each other and are intended to be used together. The Book of the Dean of Christ Church (fols. 182-245) Here the ‘stones, both precious and semi-precious’ of the principal heading account for most of the first 325 entries. Some evidently are natural specimens, while some are cut and polished; yet others are in the form of utensils and other objects (ladles, arrow-heads, sword- and knife-handles, crosses) whose primary interest in the context of this inventory (and hence of their display) lay in the raw materials of which they were composed, while a final group includes stones from the urinary tracts of men and animals. Such an agglomeration of disparate specimens would not have seemed in the least incongruous to a generation schooled in Plinian concepts of classification, which led on the Continent to the grouping of entire collections of curiosities on the basis primarily of materials and only secondarily according to form or function. Despite (perfectly justifiable) claims that the iii

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION

Ashmolean occupied a place in the vanguard of seventeenth-century ‘new science’ (MacGregor 1989), therefore, the inescapable conclusion to be drawn from the Dean of Christ Church’s catalogue is that this element of the collection continued to be treated in a manner that had been followed by European Kunstkammern since the 1500s. This impression is reinforced by the following section (fols. 210-12) in which a variety of ‘small, miraculously formed objects’ appears – a tiny microscope, micro-carvings in the form of playing-pieces, vessels and utensils carved in ivory and other minuscule items housed in (or carved on) cherry-stones, hazel nuts, etc. These belong to a class of exhibit found in every respectable cabinet of rarities, where they were prized as examples of virtuoso workmanship, belonging with other miracles of intricate workmanship such as flea-chains: some of those listed here undoubtedly equate with the ‘Flea chains of silver and gold with 300 links a piece and yet but an inch long’ as recorded in the Musæum Tradescantianum (p. 39), that would have astonished visitors to the Tradescant cabinet at Lambeth. A few Egyptian shabti figurines are grouped together here (fol. 214), perhaps singled out on account of the vivid blue-green faience from which they are characteristically made, as well as a few pieces of Roman age and some with provenances conjured from the Old Testament and from classical literature. Also registered are a few home-grown natural rarities such as the ‘Various seeds, which ... fell in the form of rain over Paulerspury, in Northamptonshire’ and a sample of the ‘blood that fell like rain for two hours on the Isle of Wight in 1177’ (fol. 215). Natural and worked specimens are again combined in the section dealing with amber (fols. 217-18), where some are singled out on account of their inclusions – either natural (bees, flies, spiders) or artificial (tiny figures carved in ivory) – and others for having been carved into ornamental shapes or fashioned into finger-rings or beads. A considerable collection of intaglios and cameos is listed, cut on a variety of gemstones as well as in shell and glass (fols. 221-3). Many of these no doubt correspond with the ‘Severall Heads cut on Agates’, ‘... on Shells’, and ‘... on crystalls’ in the Musæum Tradescantianum, just as the various specimens of landscape- and ruins-marble – termed here ‘Florentine marble’ on fol. 206), no doubt derived from the ‘Landskips, Beasts, Cities, Rocks, naturally wrought in stones’ in the Tradescant catalogue. These general correspondences, which by their nature must remain likelihoods rather than certainties, have not been slavishly noted below, however, and the balance of probabilities as to whether they may refer to identical specimens as listed in the Tradescant catalogue is left for the reader to estimate. The classification then expands to include other images in man-made materials such as gelatinous isinglass and plaster, as well as some miniature portraits in watercolours and carvings in ivory (fols. 227-31). Chronology plays little part here: some items are evidently near-contemporary while others (notably an ivory chessman and two tablemen) are important medieval pieces – all three surviving and, incidentally, made of walrus rather than elephant ivory, a distinction that as yet eluded Plot and Lhwyd (MacGregor 1983, nos. 236-8). Another carving that survives is a fragmentary head of John the Baptist in alabaster, appearing as an insert on fol. 209: as described in the text, the reverse is extensively hollowed where scrapings have been removed for their supposed curative powers, a practice recorded by an inscription in ink applied directly to the stone, showing also that it was a gift from the then keeper of the Museum, George Huddesford, on 11 October 1746. Many other pieces, inevitably, have been lost over the years, none more reprehensibly, it might be thought, than a fragment of the True Cross (fol. 212). Although its earlier history is obscure, this undoubtedly derived from the relic that was given for safe-keeping to Tradescant the younger by Queen Henrietta Maria: Ashmole records that when Tradescant returned it to its rightful owner a splinter, ‘which casually had been broken from it’, was ‘deteyned’ by Tradescant, who subsequently shared it with Ashmole (Leith-Ross 1984, p. 107; Bodleian Library, MS Ballard 2, fol. 224). A series of likenesses concluding the list (fols. 233-45) comprises images carved in alabaster, gypsum and wood, together with others moulded in wax or plaster, and finally portraits in oils on canvas. In addition to pictures of the Tradescants and of Ashmole, the latter include British and foreign royalty, nobility, scholars and other worthies, together with a few topographical works, genre pieces and natural history subjects – all adding up to a typical ancillary display as might be found in any European cabinet and not implying the presence of any dedicated picture gallery founded on aesthetic principles. Also typical of Kunstkammer taste are the anamorphic pictures registered here (fols. 237-8), that present themselves as confused swirls of colour until a cylindrical mirror is introduced into the centre, allowing the image to be viewed in corrected form in the reflection. The Book of the Principal of Brasenose (fols. 252-286) Several centuries have passed since the original Book of the Principal of Brasenose was last sighted. Much of its content survives, however, in the form of the recension of c.1756 (see Part I, pp. 203-15), although the present text makes it clear that significant editing and re-casting went on in the compiling of the eighteenth-century catalogue and that the version reproduced here retains an independent importance. In preparing the later version William iv

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION

Huddesford evidently made use of the Vice-Chancellor’s consolidated volume of 1695 rather than the original catalogue of the 1680s, since a note inserted immediately after the principal heading indicates that the revised numbering employed in the eighteenth-century inventory was first generated in the margins of the text reproduced here. It may be, therefore, that the Principal’s working catalogue had already been lost or destroyed by that time, for it is clear from the other catalogues surviving from this era that they were annotated, sometimes heavily, in the course of their everyday use and they, rather than the Vice-Chancellor’s copy, might reasonably have been put to use in this way. On the other hand, since no new consolidated catalogue was produced in the 1750s, these insertions may have been inserted post-hoc, in order to bring the consolidated catalogue into line with the revised inventories. In common with the other parts of the consolidated catalogue, a few eighteenth-century additions can be detected. Here they are limited to a number of entries towards the end, following the catalogue of fishes (see fol. 282): the texts of three entries, describing the donations of James Pound, Charles Harris and Timothy Lannoy, each reproduce entries in the Book of Benefactors, where their gifts are dated to 1706, 1707 and 1708 respectively. Edward Lhwyd would still have been in office at this time and could have overseen these additions; the next entry in the Book of Benefactors acknowledges Lhwyd himself, following his death on 30 June 1709 (see Part I, pp. 10-11). Ovenell (1986, pp. 38-9, 42-3) suggests that the list of zoological specimens compiled originally by Lhwyd for the Principal of Brasenose’s catalogue was at an early stage combined with a second inventory compiled by Plot and enumerating the books and manuscripts presented to the Museum by Ashmole himself. It is clear, however, that no such list was ever copied into the consolidated catalogue. In describing the birds Lhwyd evidently relied most heavily on John Ray’s revised and expanded edition of Francis Willughby’s Ornithology (1678), and to a lesser extent on Nehemiah Grew’s catalogue of the Royal Society’s collection, the Musæum Regalis Societatis (1681). It may be noted that Ray himself had made use of the same institution: for example, he writes of the Penguin (p. 322) that ‘I saw and described it dried in the Repository of the Royal Society’, going on to say that ‘I saw it also in Tradescants Cabinet at Lambeth, near London’ – perhaps the very specimen listed here (fol. 254). The same is likely to be true of the Dodo (fol. 255), of which Ray was to write (ibid., pp. 153-4) that ‘We have seen this Bird dried, or its skin stuft in Tradescants Cabinet’. Most of the other authorities cited by name, usually without closer reference, are taken directly from Willughby’s text, although occasional more detailed citations indicate that Lhwyd personally consulted Ulisse Aldrovandi’s Ornithologiae (1599), Pierre Belon’s De Aquatilibus (1553), Jacob Bont’s Historiae Naturalis, (1658), Richard Ligon’s True and Exact History of Barbados (1657), Johannes Nieremberg’s Historia Naturae (1635) and Willem Piso and Georg Markgraf’s Historia Naturalis Brasiliae (1648). Some of these would have been particularly important in providing native Brazilian and Mexican names for species that up to this point had not been described or named according to European convention. An interesting debt is also evident for some of the Arctic species that remained unfamiliar at this time, for which Lhwyd relied on evidence provided by Henrik Høyer, the German-born town physician of Bergen, in his correspondence with Carolus Clusius (Charles de l’Écluse) as published by Clusius in his Exoticorum libri decem (1605). The sources are extended in considering the quadrupeds to include the relevant volumes of the Historiae Naturalis of John Jonston (Joannes Jonstonus) (1657) and Ole Worm’s Museum Wormianum (1655). The Musaeum Tradescantianum (1656) itself is cited in relation to selected quadrupeds and other specimens: whether these particular exhibits were specially identified in some way is not known; certainly there are other potential candidates that have escaped identification in this way. For the fishes reference is made here and there to Guillaume Rondelet’s Libri de Piscibus (1554) and Hippolito Salviano’s Aquatilium Animalium Historiae (1554), as well as Willughby’s De Historia Piscium (1686). None of these categories of material lay within Lhwyd’s particular field of interest, so his assiduity in trackingdown identities in a respectably wide range of literature is to be commended. It may be noted that the revised text of c.1756 makes no attempt to extend the literature or otherwise to refine the identifications given here, and indeed one may search in vain for evidence that the Ashmolean’s zoological collection provided the basis for any meaningful research during the whole of the eighteenth century. Had this section of the catalogue – perhaps more than any other – been brought into print after its compilation, it would certainly have been consulted along with the other authorities cited as a source of reference for further research. The depredations of time, infestation by pests and general misuse have taken a heavy toll on the items in this section. Stuffed specimens in particular, which would have been amongst the earliest of their kind to have been displayed in Britain, were especially vulnerable: no fully effective techniques for long-term preservation had yet been developed and indeed it would take a further two centuries from the time of the formation of the Tradescant collection for significant advances to be made in the taxidermist’s art. Recognizing the inevitability of decay, Ashmole had included amongst his ‘Statutes, Orders and Rules’ for the Museum the following provision: ‘That as any particular growes old & perishing, the Keeper may remove it into one of the Closets, or other repository; & some other be substituted’. This process can be seen at work in the present text with an insertion (opposite fol. 252) to the effect that a number of items had been ‘withdrawn with the approval of the Vice-Chancellor and v

the other Visitors’ on 8 January 1755. The most famous casualty of this procedure was the dodo, and since by this time there was already no possibility of the University authorities ‘substituting’ another specimen of the now-extinct species (though they could scarcely have been aware of this fact) they have been much criticized by subsequent generations for their actions – largely through misunderstanding of the processes involved and through persistent mis-translation of the passage concerned – until the record was put straight by R.F. Ovenell (1992). An attempt was made by the brothers J.S. and P.B. Duncan in their Catalogue of the Ashmolean Museum (1836) to identify zoological and other specimens surviving from the foundation collection and an illustrated inventory of survivors was prepared almost a century later by R.T. Gunther (1925). A third survey compiled more recently by K.C. Davies (in MacGregor 1983, pp. 346-9) remains the most authoritative statement as to surviving exhibits: it comprises a mere forty entries, a few of which are for multiple specimens. More general accounts of the history of the zoological collections are given by Davies and Hull (1976) and by MacGregor (2001b). The Book of the Regius Professor of Medicine (fols. 289-320) The materials grouped here, seemingly so disparate in nature, accurately reflect the range of substances that formed the basis of the standard seventeenth-century materia medica. With the first entry (fol. 289), for a human skull recovered from a burial, we are put in mind of a portrait of John Tradescant the younger, formerly owned by Horace Walpole, who described it as ‘Tradescant junior with a skull covered with moss for the powder of sympathy’ (Piper 1963, pp. 350-1). Grew (1681, p. 7) commented on moss from this source that it is ‘by the Paracelsians call’d Usnea’, and ‘is by them commended for its peculiar Virtue in stopping of bleeding at the Nose’, while Hooke called it ‘a soveraigne remedy for the falling sickness’. The mummy that follows is to be imagined merely as a fragment, possibly already reduced to powdered form and destined to be administered medicinally – a representative of the many tons of such material that found its way to Europe from Egypt over a period of several centuries when it formed a standard part of the pharmacopoeia. Bezoars – calcareous concretions, principally from the guts of certain goats – enjoyed a high reputation over a similarly long period for their perceived medicinal (and also apotropaic) qualities, some of the most highly prized having their status buttressed by mounts of precious metal studded with gemstones. The range of these animal- or human-based substances to be found in the medicine cabinet was extended during the age of exploration by the addition of others derived from newly discovered species – amongst which may be included the ‘Manatee stone’ listed here (fol. 290) – and began to decline in importance only in the later eighteenth century. In the collections of the Ashmolean, conceived as the very latest embodiment of the ‘new science’ (as in its close contemporary, the ‘Repository’ of the Royal Society), they indicate a continuing respect for one aspect of traditional healing that has not stood the test of time, but others can be found that still feature in present-day pharmaceutical practice. These include most notably the vegetable substances from the following sections, in which are many that continue to form the basis of standard medicines. Those listed are divided into ‘Roots’ (though many of these are more strictly rhizomes – horizontal underground stems – rather than true roots), ‘Leaves, stems and florets’, ‘Barks’ (including several New World species such as ‘Winter’s bark’, underlining the importance of pharmaceutical interest as a factor in early botanical exploration), ‘Woods’, ‘Gums’ and ‘Fruits and seeds’. Marine plants are grouped in a later section, where the descriptions are notably more detailed, reflecting, perhaps, Lhwyd’s particular research interests. At this time, however, even the best naturalists remained unable to distinguish the animal rather than vegetable nature of species such as corals and bryozoans. Minerals and salts are also well represented, although there is a notable lack here of the gems that featured so prominently in earlier lapidaries, where they had attributed to them important healing powers on account of their supposed sympathetic properties. Amongst the ‘Clays and earths’ to be found here as in every other cabinet of the age, are several samples of terra sigillata – troches of medicinal clay excavated from certain sources and ‘sealed’ or stamped with a device indicating its point of origin; clays from different sources were accorded differing properties, but it seems that the identities of those represented in the collection had been lost and no one within the Museum – not even the Regius Professor in his capacity as a Visitor – had the capacity to distinguish them one from another. Again there are difficulties for us today in establishing the precise identities of many of these natural materials, since the Latin names applied to them in the seventeenth century lacked precision and often were applied to different organisms at different times. In dealing with this particular text, however, we have the advantage of being able to refer to a revised version, drawn up in the 1770s when Dr William Vivian succeeded to the chair of medicine; in this version (see Part I, pp. 159-71), identifications in English have been incorporated in the plant section – the work originally, it is suggested, of John Whiteside, keeper of the Ashmolean from 1714 to 1729 (Ovenell 1986, p. 121). Whiteside would have had the benefit of having the actual specimens in front of him, although the value of his contribution is tempered by the fact some of the English nomenclature he supplies is itself now obsolete and subject to uncertainties of its own. None the less, in the translations we have commonly (though not exclusively) followed vi

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION

the identifications given in the eighteenth-century recension; further comments on plant identifications may be found under relevant headings in the Glossary (pp. 207-24). The Book of the Senior Proctor (fols. 357-428) The text of this section of the consolidated catalogue derives directly from the surviving Book of the Senior Proctor, compiled with commendable alacrity by Edward Lhwyd in 1684 (see Part I, pp. 125-51). As noted there, the principal sources relied on by Lhwyd as authorities for his identifications (for shells had not hitherto been a subject in which he could claim any special expertise) were Martin Lister’s Historiæ Animalium Angliæ (1678) and Filippo Buonanni’s newly published Recreatio mentis et oculi in observatione animalium testaceorum, printed in Rome in 1684. (The first volume of Lister’s Historiæ sive Synopsis Methodicæ Conchyliorum appeared a year later in 1685; a number of specimens included among the illustrations there are annotated ‘è Musæo Oxoniensi’). Reference is also made less frequently to Guillaume Rondelet’s Universæ aquatilium Historiæ (1555), Lodovico Moscardo’s Note overo memorie del Museo del Conte Lodovico Moscardo (1672), Joannes Jonston’s Historiæ Naturalis de Exanguibus Aquaticis (1650) and Nehemiah Grew’s catalogue of the Royal Society’s ‘Repository’, Musæum Regalis Societatis (1681). Occasional reference is made too to classical authorities such as Pliny’s Natural History, but most or all of these seem to be secondary references taken by Lhwyd from the more modern works quoted above. The Senior Proctor’s catalogue is of especial interest from a curatorial point of view in that it explicitly replicates the order of the collection itself. The various ‘Parts’ appear to represent individual cabinets, within which the subdivisions are each presented as numbered ‘Drawers’ (capsulae); thereafter the entries (numbered from 1 upwards in each case) most probably correspond to individual divisions (loculae) within the drawer. It seems evident that the shells themselves have been arranged by type and placed in the drawers in a systematic order which was then adopted as the order for the corresponding catalogue. While the advantages of such a close relationship may seem self-evident – especially so since the original catalogues were designed to aid the Visitors in the annual audit of the collections as prescribed by Ashmole in his statutes (see Part 1, pp. i-ii) – the same identity of organizing principles cannot be demonstrated for all of the other inventories and in those instances it is unwise to attempt to draw too many conclusions about the layout of the collections from the order of the catalogues. There are also particular problems in identifying the precise nature of the shells listed here since much of the nomenclature used, although still current in many cases, is evidently applied here to specimens that today would be differently named. In general terms, present-day scholarship divides the Molluscs into a number of classes, the two largest being the Gastropoda and the Bivalvia. The Gastropoda are essentially snail-shaped, with a singlepiece shell usually twisted about an axis. The Bivalvia, on the other hand, have a shell in two parts, united by a hinge. Within the catalogue the convention seems to have been to call any familiar specimen by its acknowledged name, while effectively describing less common varieties by the form ‘snail-like shell’ etc., together with another name. In the case of the Gastropoda the simple name adopted was Cochlea, and for the Bivalvia it was Concha. As a result of this practice, the range of terms used within any one class is very variable in its application, as it is in its accuracy: even from the cursory descriptions given here it is clear that some specimens cannot possibly belong to the classes of shells (as presently understood) to which they are consigned in the catalogue. These difficulties are further referred to in the introduction to the Glossary (p. 207), where additional observations are made on the individual terms used. The Book of the Junior Proctor (fols. 464-619) In a departure from the routine followed for the other Visitors’ catalogues in being transcribed more or less directly into the consolidated catalogue, the original text of the Junior Proctor’s inventory was entirely replaced in the ViceChancellor’s copy by the record of a completely different collection. The original ‘Catalogue of instruments of war and of civil use, and of all kinds of ancient utensils’ (see Part I, pp. 15-31) is displaced here by an inventory of natural specimens, mostly geological and mostly given by Robert Plot, with the addition of minerals, fossils and shells given by Martin Lister to the Museum in its early years. Ovenell (1986, p. 46) speculates that by the 1690s Lhwyd (who succeeded Plot in the keepership in 1691) had become deeply committed to the study of materials of this kind and that these interests had simply led to the eclipse of the man-made rarities. The date at which the text was compiled is unknown, however (though certainly after 1686, when Plot’s Stafford-shire was published), and the slavish reliance on the authority of Plot, for whom Lhwyd had no great regard as a scholar, may indicate a date in the 1680s when he had not yet fully achieved his independence. The presence of so extensive a range of minerals and palaeontological specimens in the Ashmolean’s founding collection is a matter of genuine interest, for there were few precedents for such an accumulation in seventeenthcentury England. In the catalogue of the Tradescants’ museum are seven pages of rather sparse and jumbled entries of this nature (all under the heading ‘Fossilia’), a number of which may correspond with specimens catalogued here by Plot and Lhwyd. Elsewhere the only comparable collection was that of the ‘Repository’ of the Royal Society, vii

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION

where Nehemiah Grew (1681) had listed over 150 minerals and fossils. The private cabinet assembled by John Woodward, professor of physic at Gresham College from 1693, would later be among the best of its kind and his Attempt towards a Natural History of the Fossils of England proved a landmark when it was published in 1729, but when the Junior Proctor’s catalogue was being compiled Woodward had not yet embarked on these researches: indeed he later recorded of a specimen discovered in London in 1688 that ‘’twas the first Stone I ever took notice of, or gather’d’ (Price 1989, p. 81). The presentation of a number of specimens of ‘rare fossils from his abundant collection of remains from the period of the Flood’ was recorded in the Book of Benefactors in 1716, but the sentiment with which the entry concludes – ‘We hope that one day he will give more’ – went unrequited (Part I, p. 11). The composition of the Ashmolean’s collection accurately reflects the pioneering contribution to natural science made by Plot. His Natural History of Oxford-shire (1677) had set new standards in the enumeration and presentation of the natural resources of the county, exemplifying the ethos of the ‘new science’ embraced by the early members of the Royal Society (amongst whom Plot and Ashmole were both numbered). Doubtless this publication went a long way to securing for Plot the position of first keeper of the Ashmolean in 1683: numerous references to it appear in the present catalogue, not out of mere piety but as authority for many of the identifications given to the specimens by Lhwyd. In many instances it is clear that the descriptions are of the actual specimens collected by Plot and their relationship is made explicit by their being housed in a case designated the Scrinio Plotiano Oxoniensi – Plot’s Oxfordshire cabinet. Much of the material from Staffordshire occupies a comparable relationship to his companion volume, the Natural History of Stafford-shire (1686), similarly housed in a Scrinio Plotiano Staffordiensi. The Latin nomenclature that gives an air of exactitude and authority to the catalogue, however, proves less than robust under close interrogation. Several factors contribute to the uncertainties it generates. Few of the terms used to describe individual specimens remain in current usage and fewer still were defined in print with any degree of precision before they fell from use. In general the published sources consulted by Plot would not have provided a cast-iron basis for the identifications he attributes to specimens in his Oxford-shire and Staffordshire volumes, and in many instances these provide the sole authorities cited in the present text. Even when Plot himself provides some discussion, as for example on his use of the term fluor, it serves merely to illustrate his inclusion of what are today recognized as a variety of disparate minerals under a single heading. (He deserves no particular blame for this: a few years earlier Robert Boyle had published an essay in which he wrote that ‘in those colder Countryes ... where hard gems are unfrequent, those soft ones that Mineralists call Fluores, are often to be found ...’ (Boyle 1672, p. 31), indicating that precise application would have been impossible). The rudimentary level of Plot’s understanding of fossils, in particular, is made plain in his Oxford-shire, where indexed under ‘stones’ we find ‘stones resembling Fishes ... Cockles ... Plants’ etc. followed by those resembling parts of animals ‘Bullocks’ hearts ... horses’ heads’ and those ‘resembling some part of a man’ – his breast, brain, ear, eye, foot, scrotum etc., without acknowledgement that processes other than chance might be involved in the formation of any of them. Lhwyd would shortly make a brave attempt to remedy some of these shortcomings with regard to fossils in his Lithophylacium of 1699 (and the experience of compiling the Junior Proctor’s catalogue must have made a fundamental contribution to his practical education). In the 1680s, however, he remained constrained by the influence of his mentor Plot – an influence that he found increasingly irksome with the passage of time – and unable to assert his individuality. All the uncertainties surrounding identifications derived from the nomenclature used in the catalogue combine to suggest that while purely descriptive terms may safely be rendered into English, more specialized terminology is at times best left untranslated. Instead, a glossary is provided (pp. 207-24) that may help to shed light on the nature and/or identity of the materials described, as well as the uncertainties that surrounded it. A variety of terms in the vernacular, given here and there as English equivalents within the catalogue, may also aid identification. At one time these were in common use amongst quarrymen and miners in describing certain ores, ‘formed stones’ and other deposits, but undoubtedly they would have been highly regionalized and in any case most are long since obsolete. A few terms that once enjoyed a wider usage also appear. ‘Bristol diamonds’ are in reality crystals of quartz. ‘Chalk eggs’ are still talked of in popular collecting circles: the hollow flint nodules filled with white powder to which the term refers are in fact fossil sponges. ‘Rust balls’ are iron oxides from decomposition of pyrite nodules. ‘Mundic’ was a term once widely used for iron pyrites: a later keeper of the Ashmolean in the eighteenth century found himself in despair at trying to preserve his mundics from self-destruction, declaring that they had ‘gone to decay in spite of varnish and every other care’ (MacGregor and Turner 1986, p. 655, n. 7). Another Ashmolean-related specimen is likely to be signalled by the ‘Nitre from the walls’ (fol. 517), for a letter of 31 December 1691 from John Aubrey to Lhwyd informs him that ‘Mr Ashmole & I doe both desire you, to let the Pictures hang reclining from the Walls; otherwise the salt, and saltpetre in the walls will rot the Canvess’ (Bodleian Library, MS Ashmole 1814, fol. 98). A later sample of ‘Nitre from the walls of the Museum’, probably collected by John Kidd in the early 1800s, survives in a phial in the Museum of the History of Science. viii

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION

A few more exotic sources are listed, most notably a number of mines as far away as the present-day Slovak Republic and Hungary. The locations of those at Neusohl, Kremnitz, Schemnitz and Herrengrund were already well known to Fellows of the Royal Society, information on them having been sought in the Philosophical Transactions no. 25 (1667), pp. 467-9 and promptly supplied by the traveller and virtuoso Edward Browne (ibid., no. 58 (1670), pp. 1189-1201 and no. 59 (1670), pp. 1042-9). A lengthier account of these same sites was later included in ‘A journey ... to the mine-towns in Hungary’ in Browne’s Travels (1685, pp. 55-72). Some of the Ashmolean specimens from these same sources are specifically attributed to Browne and it seems highly likely that all the Hungarian specimens will have arrived by the same route. Most of the identifiable fossils are comparatively small in scale, but Philip Powell (personal communication) notes what may be an interesting correspondence between the ‘Bone found in a quarry at Cornwell’ (fol. 536) and the fragment of Megalosaurus illustrated by Plot in his Natural History of Oxford-shire (pl. viii, fig. 4). Sadly this intriguing possibility must remain unproven, for the specimen, in common with every other one listed here, has not survived the passage of time. (For the fate of the early mineral and fossil collections see Brian Atkins in MacGregor 1983, p. 350). The presence of a number of man-made antiquities amongst the natural specimens is conveniently explained by Plot in his Stafford-shire, where he dedicates a whole chapter to them on the basis that ‘... being all made and fashioned out of Natural things, [they] may as well be brought under a Natural History as any thing of Art’ (Plot 1686, p. 392). The concept was one with a long history, manifested in many Renaissance cabinets of curiosities and drawing its inspiration ultimately from one of the grand progenitors of the genre, the Natural History of Pliny the Elder. Plot was, none the less, precocious in carrying the concept from the cabinet into the field, for hitherto the Plinian system had been applied only to deracinated artefacts, deprived of any topographical – let alone archaeological – context. Not surprisingly, in matters of chronology Plot and Lhwyd proved ill-equipped to interpret the earlier antiquities under their care. As yet there was not only a complete absence of any framework for dating such material, but neither was there any concept that it was to be distributed over a time-span vastly greater than that admitted by the date for the Creation of 4004 BC as enshrined in King James’s Bible. The result, inevitably, was an acute telescoping of pre-Roman material and indeed a reluctance to look for the origins of any ‘British’ or prehistoric antiquities beyond the very eve of the arrival in Britain of the Romans themselves. Typical was the treatment of stone implements. In his discussion of the ‘Securis lapidea’ which ultimately was catalogued on fol. 556, Plot had contented himself in his Stafford-shire with conjecturing that ‘Either the Britains, Romans or both ... made them Axes of stone’, including the present example, provenanced there to the edge of the Weavers Hill. More promising was the use he made of ethnographic parallels from within the collection to explain their mode of use: ‘how they might be fastned to a helve, may be seen in the Musæum Ashmoleanum, where there are several Indian ones of the like kind, fitted up in the same order as when formerly used’ (Plot 1686, p. 397). A ‘Securis Romana ænea’ (fol. 556) is referenced to the same volume, where an illustration is also given (Plot 1686, p. 404, tab. xxxiii), from which it can be seen to be an Early Bronze Age rather than a Roman piece as claimed (it still survives in the collections, along with a similar one also presented by Plot). Elsewhere a Bronze Age palstave is likewise attributed to the Romans and identified (on the evidence of Lodovico Moscardo 1672, pp. 305-7) as the head of a catapult bolt, ‘the wooden stemm being fitted into the hollows on each side [of] it, the edg[e] being placed foremost for execution’ (Plot 1686, p. 403). Even wider of the mark is the curious identification of a Bronze Age socketed chisel as a stand or support for a Roman war-trumpet (ibid., p. 404), an identification carried over directly to the present catalogue (fol. 575). With these exceptions, almost the only external authority cited in this part of the catalogue (and that only once) is the Antiquitates Neomagenses (1678) of Johannes Smet, a British father-and-son team sharing the same name (originally John Smith) and living in The Netherlands, to whom a single Roman antiquity is referred, and to which a further reference to C.D. Rhode’s Cimbrisch-Holsteinische Antiquitæten Remarques (1728) has later been added. Elsewhere in the catalogue, frequent references appear in the form ‘Chym. Lect.’, but these remain tantalizing in the uniform absence of any page or folio numbers that might enable identification of the work to which reference is being made. Antony Simcock, in his valuable essay The Ashmolean Museum and Oxford Science 1683-1983 (1984, notes 11, 85, 107) mentions two strong contenders. The first of these is the Cours de Chymie of Nicolas Lemery, first published in Paris in 1675 and frequently reissued thereafter, the second edition of which appeared in 1683 and was certainly in use at the early Ashmolean. Simcock notes that an English translation of the first edition had appeared in 1677 and that some translation of the 1683 version was undertaken by James Keill, lecturer in anatomy at Oxford; evidently this text was never published (and indeed it may have been intended purely for teaching purposes), although Keill did contribute to a third edition of the earlier translation, published in 1698. This fast-evolving situation might well have provided a context in which a preliminary reference could have been inserted against relevant catalogue entries with a view to adding the appropriate pagenumbers at a later date but which intention was never fulfilled. The alternative suggestion offered by Simcock (ibid. and personal communication) is that the citation is to the chemistry course given by John Freind, instituted ix

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION

in 1704, published in Latin in 1709 as Praelectiones Chymicae and in English in 1712 under the title Chymical Lectures – corresponding precisely with the abbreviated references in the catalogue. Once again it would be easy to imagine how references in preliminary form might have been inserted but never completed, although the chronology is more difficult to reconcile here. Whatever the truth of the matter, it remains clear that this element of the museum collection, at least, remained closely integrated at this time with the chemistry course taught in the Museum’s laboratory – a relationship that had been fundamental to Ashmole’s vision for his new foundation but which would be progressively eroded in the course of the eighteenth century (Simcock 1984; MacGregor and Turner 1986). Account of later donations and miscellaneous inserts (fols. 641-649, 660-663) The contents of this selection of miscellanea are rendered all the more random for having been entered without regard to chronology: where dates are associated with them (which is not invariably the case) they indicate that the list was added to in a desultory manner over a period of half a century and more. Entry (or Addendum) numbers inserted here for convenience of reference reflect the sequence in which the entries appear on the page, which is clearly not always the order in which the relevant objects arrived in the Museum. Some can be equated with references in a variety of catalogues reproduced in Part I, while others appear only here; a few entries represent additional documentation supplied for earlier benefactions, rather than new acquisitions. The natural curiosities with which it opens (Addenda 1-3) have proved all too fugitive and nothing more is heard either of the well-documented fan (Addendum 4) given by the purser of the Prince William. An interesting sidelight on the history of the Alfred Jewel is provided by the note (Addendum 5) that its donor originally intended it for the Bodleian Library; no explanation survives of how it came to be deposited instead in the Ashmolean. The original memorandum transcribed here is from 1718, while the latest reference quoted on fol. 642 is to Archaeologia vol. 2, published by the Society of Antiquaries in 1773. It may be noted that the figure represented on the Jewel is identified as St Cuthbert; today it is widely interpreted as a personification of the Sense of Sight (Hinton 1974, pp. 29-48). A further link with the Antiquaries is provided by the curious discovery of several urns (evidently prehistoric – possibly Bronze Age – rather than Roman as recorded here): the account of their recovery, accompanying the gift of one of the urns in 1754 (Addendum 14), although differing in detail, seems to be linked with that reported in ‘a pretty account of the openning of a Large Barrow or Tumulus, in the County of Wiltshire’, communicated to the Society by a Mr Baker five years earlier (Society of Antiquaries of London, Minute Books, 13 April 1749). Other items can be equated with late additions to the original catalogues of the Principal of Brasenose (Addenda 7-8 and the mongoose sent by William Dampier mentioned in Addendum 20) and of the Junior Proctor (Addendum 22). In one case (Addendum 21) a letter has been transcribed relating to a gift of coins made in the early years of the Museum and recorded in the Book of the Vice-Chancellor (see above, pp. 17, 29, 32). A few entries correspond to benefactions recorded variously in the Museum’s original Book of Benefactors (see Part I, pp. 1-13), including Addenda 6, 10 and 12, while some are transcribed from the more modest list of donations from 1757-69 (Part I, pp. 239-41); many other items recorded in either of those sources, however, escape any mention here. An additional list of Donations since the Year 1796 appears in Addendum 17, but other acquisitions had to wait for the publication of the Ashmolean’s first printed catalogue in 1836 for due recognition. The significance of the catalogues What do the six catalogues consolidated into the present text reveal of contemporary attitudes to the materials they describe, and more particularly to their mutual interrelationships? Despite Ashmole’s opening polemic in his ‘Statutes, Orders & Rules, for the Ashmolean Museum’, in which he laid great emphasis on the unity of the constituent parts of the collection and the valuable lessons to be drawn from the ‘inspection of Particulars’, especially of materials ‘extraordinary in their Fabrick, or useful in Medicine, or applyed to Manufacture or Trade’ (quoted in full in MacGregor 1983, pp. 53-4), it remains difficult to discern the outlines of any unifying principles that might have bound together these disparate groups of objects into a single academic framework. The opening catalogue, attributed to the Vice-Chancellor and comprising overwhelmingly records of coins and medals, in some ways shows more precision in its descriptions and identifications than is to be found elsewhere – a precision, it is suggested above, that may be attributed in some measure to their respective donors rather than to the curators – yet the means by which these numismatic collections were to contribute to the formal curriculum of the University is nowhere apparent. Certainly they would have had no role to play in illuminating the teaching of either classical or modern history at this date, and while Plot may occasionally have introduced numismatic evidence into his widely-drawn Natural History volumes there is no reason to believe that he would have made any use of coins in teaching the natural philosophy course. We are left with the conclusion that the coins donated x

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION

by Ashmole and added to by others were little more than emblematic of the prestige of the new institution – just as they were in the parallel cabinet held in the nearby Bodleian Library. Their collecting and scholarly arrangement were symptomatic of the concerns of the seventeenth-century connoisseur, who found gratification in his familiarity with the portraits and inscriptions they bore: these allowed him to identify the great figures, events and themes that ran through his historical knowledge and allowed him to contain them, as it were, in his cabinet. John Evelyn, in his Numismata (1697, p. 157), memorably characterized a collection of coins and medals as ‘a Series Capable of furnishing an Historical Discourse with a Chain of Remarkable Instances, and Matters of Fact, without Fiction or Vain Hyperboles’, but attempts to use coins as evidence in the creation of historical narrative remained rare at this point, as witnessed by the antiquity of the few published sources relied on as authorities within the text and by the essentially genealogical concerns of Orsini’s Familiæ Romanæ in particular. Indeed, no trace can be found of any indication that the Ashmolean coins were ever mobilized at this time in the furtherance of university teaching. Any academic contribution that might have been made by the numerous man-made curiosities represented in the collection is equally hard to envisage. Certainly there was no sense in which exotic objects were used for any anthropological purpose avant la lettre, while the few antiquities represented remained equally without a disciplinary context in which their significance might be articulated for the benefit of the undergraduate population. (In a letter to John Aubrey of 1694 (reproduced in Gunther 1945, p. 234), Lhwyd shows himself at least to be aware of such a possibility – though doubtless not in the sense understood by modern archaeological practice: ‘It is true as you say, we have not many at present in the University that prosecute that study very far. However we have several, and may well hope that such collections [i.e. of antiquities] will make more.’) Those objects displaying particular technical prowess – a commodity that was much prized in the private cabinet – would have failed to resonate with any part of the University curriculum, and similarly there was no historical or art-historical role that the paintings in the collection might play, although their symbolic role within the traditional framework of the cabinet of curiosities is acknowledged above. This leaves only the natural collections – the shells, animals, fossils, minerals and plant material – for which any meaningful educational role can be envisaged. Such a function would have been appropriate enough in the broadlybased curriculum of the natural philosophy course, although the narrow subject-areas of zoology, mineralogy, palaeontology and so on were still a long way off. The study and analysis of these materials would have found a further outlet in the chemistry course taught by Plot in the ground-floor School of Natural Philosophy and more particularly in the laboratory that occupied the basement of the Museum building, and it should be remembered that in the newly founded Ashmolean the collection, the School of Natural Philosophy and the chemistry laboratory formed interlinked elements of equal importance, all under the jurisdiction of Plot in his dual role as professor of chemistry and keeper of the Museum. Little detail survives to demonstrate the workings of these interrelationships, although we may note a reference within the Junior Proctor’s catalogue to a magnet or lodestone, cut across its second axis on 8 November 1683 [fol. 584] and perhaps alluding to experimental process at work within the collection. A number of mineral samples recorded in the catalogues are annotated with the information that they do or do not respond to the application of a magnet (see, for example, fols. 505, 530). Elsewhere the coloration of various fluors when viewed by daylight and by candle-light respectively (fol. 504) speaks again of some low-level interrogation of the collection, as do some pearls, ‘broken in order to show their structure’ (fol. 524). We are reminded too of the mineral samples sent to Plot in the Museum’s founding year by Martin Lister, together with an exhortation that he should submit them to the furnace in order to determine their capacities for calcination and annealing (see Part I, pp. 153-4). Further items in the Junior Proctor’s catalogue are annotated with the abbreviation ‘Chym. Lect.’ (see above pp. ix-x), seemingly confirming that this part of the collection at least played a regular part in teaching within the early Museum. As an illustration of this process at work, we have the evidence of Edward Chamberlayne’s Angliae Notitia of 1684, which contains an account of the Museum and the following description (pt. ii, pp. 325-8) of the teaching practice. Of the three principal chambers he writes as follows: The uppermost is properly the Musaeum Ashmoleanum, where an Inferior Officer always attends, to shew the Rarities to Strangers. The middle Room is the School of Natural History, where the Professor of Chemistry, who is at present Dr. Plott, Reads 3 times a Week, on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Frydays, during the time of the Chymicall course, which continues an entire Month, concerning all Natural Bodies, relating to, and made use of in Chymical preparations, particularly as to the Countries, and places where they are produced, and found, their Natures, their Qualities and Virtues, their effects, and by what Marks and Characteristicks they are distinguished one from another, Natural from Artificial, true from Sophisticated, with their several mixtures and preparations in Tryals and Experiments, with the entire process of that Noble Art, very necessary to the cure of Diseases, when carefully managed by Learned and skilful Persons. The Lower Room, to which there is a descent by a double pair of Stairs, is the Laboratory, perchance one of the most beautiful and useful in the World, furnished with all sorts of Furnaces, and all other necessary Materials, in order to use and practise. Which part is with very great satisfaction performed by Mr. Christopher White, the skilful and industrious Operator of the University, who by the direction of the Professor, shews all sorts of Experiments, chiefly relating to that course ... ... the design of this building being not only to advance the Studies of true and real Philosophy, but also to conduce to the uses of Life, and the improvement of Medicine ...

Whilst it may be true that, in the early Ashmolean, ‘chemistry, the various branches of natural history, and antiquarian studies were provided with an institutional home’ in which these pursuits were interlinked, in which xi

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION

‘Man was studied in his environment, as a part of the natural world and of the general history of nature’ (MacGregor and Turner 1986, pp. 641-2), it is equally true that this unity was more overtly acknowledged in Plot’s Natural History volumes and in Lhwyd’s unfinished Archaeologia Britannica (1707) than in the formal curriculum of the University. Indeed, throughout the seventeenth century the core subjects studied by all undergraduates at Oxford remained firmly rooted in the seven liberal arts, the trivium and quadrivium hallowed by ancient practice and reiterated in the Laudian code of 1636, while courses such as those taught in the Ashmolean remained voluntary and ancillary, attracting additional fees from those who followed them but not subject to formal control or examination. The arrangement was one that had begun in the 1650s with the appearance of private tutors such as Peter Stahl, who offered courses in natural and experimental science, and it survived the translation of these facilities to the school of natural history founded within the Ashmolean and the officina chimica occupying the basement (see Turner 1986, passim). In time the applied ‘scientific’ interests of the institution would drift conclusively apart from those of the collections, a schism signalled already during the keepership (1714-29) of John Whiteside, who evidently enjoyed a good reputation as a mathematician and a lecturer but who attracted a disparaging reference from Thomas Hearne for his other duties in showing ‘Knick Knack or Gim-Cracks’ to visitors to the Museum. Only in the early decades of the nineteenth century would a significant attempt be made towards giving the collections a new relevance in the form of an exposition of the tenets of natural theology (MacGregor and Headon 2000), a step that further removed them from Ashmole’s founding vision, while the later 1800s saw the progressive addition of archaeological material and the alienation of the natural and anthropological collections to the University’s new Natural Science Museum and the Pitt Rivers Museum respectively. Only with the re-founding of the Ashmolean in 1908 as an institution dedicated specifically to art and archaeology did it regain the status that was surely its due, albeit based on collections almost wholly different from those with which it had started its existence. Back in its earliest years, the Ashmolean had received a visit on 26 May 1684 from the antiquary and collector Ralph Thoresby, who declared that he ‘... Could have contentedly spent a long time in a thorough view of the several rarities, which the ingenious Dr Plot ... has almost promised to print the catalogue of’ (Hunter 1830, pt. 2, pp. 4289). We can easily agree with Plot’s perception of the desirability of this course of action, and if the text has lost something in topical value during the ensuing three centuries and more of delay since his intentions were declared, it can only have gained in its immense historical interest. The present publication may go some way to fulfilling these intentions, as well as honouring the memory of the first keeper of the Museum and his talented deputy, who are its primary authors.

It is not agreed whether this is the wooden model of some actual beak or whether it was fashioned at a whim. None of the ornithologists who have written so far have described any bird with a beak of this kind.

74 Rostrum cujusdam avis exoticæ, quam nondũ descriptam suspicamus, figuræ est admodum obsoletæ, mempe ad latera compressũ, adeo ut gladioli mucronem omnino referat; 3 dig. longum, colores ad basin unicæ dimidiæ spacio \\28//

259 Terra sigillata.

Flattened (or fan-shaped) marine plant, with densely-packed branches and with a whitish knobbly surface. More or less 9 inches tall; it has no root but adheres to a stone which forms a wide base, as is the case with almost all marine plants. The part of the stem which is fastened to the rocks, is hardly as thick as a goose-quill; both the stem and the branches are described as broad and flattened rather than rounded or smoothed. No branches on the stem grow within 2 inches of the root; then the stem divides into branches growing to the left and right. The little branches springing from the ends of the stems are very delicate and look a little like filaments. The little knobs on the whitish outer covering are perforated with holes. The whole plant, stripped off its outer coat, is coal-black in colour and like horn in texture.

Coralline of Caspar Bauhin, the surface of which is reticulated, spotted and purplish in colour. The purplish flat reticulated coralline of Parkinson (1640), p. 1298. The very elegant Frutex marinus, or white sailor’s coral of Ray (1686, p. 67). The darkish membrane, which serves as an outer covering, on most of these shades to purple, but on some it shades to white. Several ‘twigs’ branch out into smaller parts; (i.e. fans from the thicker branches form other smaller fans on either side); most of the ‘twigs’ are flat. The elegant Frutex marinus of Clusius [1605, pp.120-1].

A plant not unlike a Tamarisc, with regular rows of branches arranged in pairs opposite each other, like the strings of a musical instrument. On the rocks grows a substance, somewhat spongy, striated and similar to wood, resembling a halved coconut cut lengthwise. From it emerge four (in some cases, possibly more or fewer) stems, 3 feet tall, somewhat flattened, striated longitudinally and chestnut-coloured. From these stems, which are wider, grow two rows of branches arranged opposite each other, and extending from the root to the very top. These branches, which closely resemble musical strings and are reddish in colour, are attached at almost equal intervals. Its place of origin is not known, but, from the spongy root and hairy stems just described, it is clearly marine.

Little, fan-shaped marine plant, remarkable for the long hairs growing at the root. Similar to no. 4, but with many more branches; it also has a similar outer coat. In this and many other ways, all marine plants are of this type.

A kind of thistle-melon, of which I do not think there is yet any published description. Its root is closest in appearance to a small branch of an ancient birch tree, with its very thin bark. Its fruit (although whether it is truly a fruit we are a little uncertain) is smooth, almost 9 inches in length, and 4-5 inches in circumference, thick with pedicles 1 inch long on all sides, crowding together, which at the top bristle with stiff and very sharp spines, as many as twelve, arranged radially like a star; of these, two rise above the rest opposite each other and are longer, about 6 inch tall, and they closely resemble the ‘beak’ of a Stork’s-bill.

Perhaps a branch of some sort of Indian Palm. Where it joins the trunk it is broad and flattened, with a fibrous texture; in size and shape resembles the snout or sword of a sword fish, and because it has been cut I say nothing of its length. Where it begins it is furrowed lengthwise by slender, branching grooves. Its branches are as thick as swans’ quills and about 3 feet long; they are notably angular, sometimes four-cornered sometimes six-cornered, and rather densely packed with frequent nodules (which are, presumably, buds), knotty, so that to someone looking casually they look like roots.

Prickly or thorny Melon, or perhaps a kind of Thistle-melon. The thorns do not rest on any feet (just like the Thistle-melon in no. 102), but break through the skin of the fruit itself; they are black, stiff, very sharp and smooth, usually eight but sometimes ten in number; they taper gradually to a point, and are thick with sharp little prickles.

Bean-pod, very thick; perhaps a kind of Locust bean, according to Johannes Bauhin. It is about 4 or 5 inches long, reddish in colour, the surface somewhat shiny and sandy, very like common earthenware pots. The pod is about 3 inch thick; and the seed is black all over, similar to a horse-bean, and thinner at one end, at the top of which are small points, like the heads of little pins; we think that the stalk was attached to this part of the seed. In size it is roughly between that of a horse bean and a garden bean.

ACCOUNT OF LATER DONATIONS, TOGETHER WITH MISCELLANEOUS INSERTS on gold, drawn sitting in an episcopal chair, with the following inscription in Saxon – Thus construed: – Alfredus me jussit fabrican. Mr Wallis, speaking of this portrait, has the following remarks: “King Alfred preferred these characters to the saxon, and when he swa/y\ed the sceptre, brought them into use. This curious memorial of St. [-Cure] Cuthbert was found in the very place of that glorious monarch’s retreat and deliverance from the Danes, fortified by him in the time of war, and in the time of peace converted into a monastery.” Dr. Musgrave (who wrote a dissertation thereon), thinks this curious Cimolium an undeniable instance of the use of images coming from the Heathens into the Christian Church. Dr. Hickes has engraven it in his Thesaurus, and is of opinion, that the occasion of it was the vision of St. Cuthbert, which William of Malmsbury speaks of, appearing to him and his mother the same night, (after he had been beaten by the Danes, and retired into Athelney), and assuring him that he should be a great king. In memory whereof we may well suppose, that the image upon it is St. Cuthbert’s, (to whose merit he was wont to ascribe his future successes over the Danes), and not only so, but being plainly made, on purpose to hang on a string, it is very probable that himself constantly wore it, in honour [-of] to this his tutelar saint. – It is said to be now in the Ashmolean Museum at Oxford. – see Archaeologia, Vol. ii. p. 68.72.

Glossary of Latin terms used for natural specimens listed in the catalogue It is well appreciated that the application of Latin nomenclature to natural specimens remained distinctly fluid during the seventeenth century; indeed it would undergo a considerable measure of evolution in the course of the 1600s. The cataloguing exercise undertaken by Plot and Lhwyd, although it took place in the closing decades of the century, was heavily dependent for its sources on works from the mid-1600s or earlier, and fully reflects the uncertainties of the age. Some of the terms used here seem to have been taken directly from the Musæum Tradescantianum, a work drawn up jointly by John Tradescant the younger in association with Elias Ashmole and Dr Thomas Wharton between 1650 and 1656 (see Josten 1966, vol. I, p. 94; Leith-Ross 1984, pp. 120-2), suggesting that in some instances, at least, the identifications accompanied the specimens when they were transferred to Oxford in 1683. Many plants and substances identified in the 1656 catalogue cannot be identified in the present text, however, so that numerous losses, whether of specimens or merely of identities, must have occurred along the way. In any case, a great many entries in the consolidated catalogue refer to material acquired directly by the Ashmolean in its early years or as ready-made collections from other benefactors, and have no connection with the Tradescants. Martin Lister was one of the few authors (apart from Ashmole, of course) to whom Plot and Lhwyd could apply directly for advice or for clarification of points of obscurity, and the gift of his specimens along with the illustrated text in which they had been identified with their Latin names was a bonus of exceptional value. For other material, the limitations of the textual and illustrative evidence available to them clearly contributed to their difficulties. Amongst the interpretations offered in the following glossary, some may have had a general validity but in the case of certain deviant terms it would be unwise to assume that they represent much more than the usage current within the Ashmolean during its earliest years. In assessing the meaning of these terms we have the advantage that some of them – notably those applied to minerals and fossils – were also used by Plot in his volumes on the Natural History of Oxford-shire and of Staffordshire respectively, where a few of them are accompanied by additional discussion and occasionally by illustrations. These allow for some degree of estimation of their general validity, which will be found in only a small minority of cases to have had any long-term currency. Indeed, Philip Powell has noted that Plot’s illustrations are frequently at odds with the identities given to the specimens in his own text. Another illuminating (though again tantalizingly ambivalent) source of information is provided by an advertisement placed in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society in1708, during Lhwyd’s keepership, in which collectors were invited to write to the librarian of the ‘Ashmolian Repository’ in order to secure for the price of 1 guinea a set of fossils, to be supplied with details of provenance and named according to Lhwyd’s Lithophylacium. Fifty-two varieties are listed according to their Latin names, together with equivalent English nomenclature. Although the English terms are at times scarcely less obscure than the Latin (one eighteenth-century observer commented on Lhwyd’s wayward descriptions that ‘his names are certainly the most fanciful and odd I ever met with’: Emanuel Mendes da Costa to William Huddesford, 5 April 1760; reproduced in Nichols 1817-58, vol. IV, p. 472), they are included below under the appropriate entries, with the reference ‘Ashmolean 1708’. In the case of certain of the plant specimens we are further aided by translations offered by John Whiteside (keeper 1714-29), although these are not without difficulties of their own (see pp. vi-vii). In the following list Whiteside’s botanical nomenclature (given in quotes, where appropriate) is supplemented by notes supplied by Stephen Harris that attempt to reconcile his usage with present-day terminology. The zoological specimens (which received no such treatment from Whiteside) have been identified here with varying degrees of certainty, some of them to species level, while for others the most likely range of possibilities is discussed. The shells in particular have been found to exemplify many of the pitfalls that lie in the way of positive identification. John Davies observes, for example, that whereas Buccinum is the genus of marine gastropods known as whelks, belonging to the family Buccinidae, the very first example so listed (fol. 358), would seem to be a representative of the genus Charonia of the family Cymatiidae (also called Ranellidae). Later reference is made under the same name to a number of freshwater (‘riverine’) specimens, which again come from a very different family. Elsewhere there are examples that could indeed refer to the common whelk, Buccinum. It may be that the term Buccinum was used in the catalogue to refer to the general shape of the shell – coiled, and pointed at one end – suggesting a derivation from the Latin bucina, meaning a crooked trumpet or a shepherd’s horn. One authority (Morch 1877) actually called the genus Buccinatorium rather than Charonis. In this context the term may have other possible origins, but it can and does include gastropods which we now call Buccinum, the common whelk. In the same way, shells catalogued with the name Nerita present equal problems of identification, evidently including some examples of the modern genus Nerita of the family Neritidae – small marine gastropods – as well as others clearly not of the Neritidae but possibly belonging to the superficially similar family Naticidae. For all of these reasons we have been cautious in translating within the text some of the terms used by Plot and Lhwyd in the course of their work, and have chosen instead, with advice from our specialist co-authors, to indicate in the glossary at least some of the most likely interpretations.

GLOSSARY OF LATIN TERMS

Alumen plumosum: asbestos in its feathery form, also known as ‘salamander’s wool’. Alumen rupeum: asbestos in its rock form. Alumen scaiolum: asbestos from limestone [?]. Amethystus: amethyst. Amianthus: ‘earth-flax’, i.e. asbestos. Pliny (XXXVI, 31) writes that ‘it resembles alumen in appearance, and suffers no diminution from the activity of fire’. Amies: ‘ammi’. Cumin, probably Ammi visnaga (Apiaceae). Ammites: a fossil umbel. Amygdalus: almond. Prunus amygdalus, Rosaceae). Anacardium: cashew. Anacardium occidentale (Anacardiaceae). According to Grew (1681, p. 208), ‘a fruit so called from some likeness it hath to a little Heart.’ Anas arctica: puffin. Fratercula arctica. Andrapodites: a stone fortuitously shaped like a human foot. Anguis: the term seems to have been used indiscriminately for eels and snakes; see also Serpens. Anisi stellati: fruit – aniseed – of Illicium verum (Illiciaceae) from Indochina. Prescribed as an aromatic carmative and antiflatulent. Anser bassanus: gannet. Now Morus bassanus. Anser magellanici: ‘Magellanic goose’. The term is referenced to Clusius (1605, p. 101); here in the catalogue it is used as an alternative for Penguini. Today it is termed Chloephaga picta leucoptera – the Magellan goose. Anthropocordites: nodule of flint shaped like a human heart. Plot 1677, p. 130, pl. viii, 1. See also Cordites. Antimonium: antimony. Antipathes: a precious stone believed to be effective against witchcraft. Also used synonymously in the catalogue for black coral from Spain. Apocini gossipini: cotton.

Apyron: the term is normally used for native gold. So identified at one point in the catalogue (as the equivalent of German Gedigengold); elsewhere, however, it is used by Plot as a synonym for translucent sulphur Gunther 1925a, p. 443). Aranea: spider. Aranaeus piscis: a sea-fish – see Aldrovandi 1602, p. 600. The ‘Greater weever fish’, Trachinus draco. See also Rondelet 1554, pp. 300-304.

Argus lapis: ‘Argus-stone’ – a pebble marked with many spots or ‘eyes’.

Abies: fir, genus Abies (Pinaceae). Accipenser: sturgeon. Accipenser sturio. Achatus: agate. By Pliny’s day, achatus was ‘a stone formerly held in high esteem, but now held in none’ (XXXVII, 54). Acorus verus: ‘sweet cane’. Probably refers to the rhizome of sweet flag (Acorus calamus, Acoraceae). See also Pseudo-acorus. Acus piscis: needle fish. Acus maxima squamosa: identified by Catesby as the Green garfish. Adamas: diamond. Pliny (XXXVII, 15) ascribes to it the power to neutralize poison, to dispel delirium and to banish ‘groundless perturbations of the mind’. See also Pseudo-adamas. Adarce: petrifying limestone. In discussion of a specimen from Somerton, Oxfordshire, Plot (1677, p. 126, tab. vi, 10) describes the grass around a garden cascade as ‘prettily ... sheathed with stone’. See also Aldrovandi 1648, pp. 213-14). Adianthum: maidenhair. Adiantum capillus-veneris (Pteridaceae). Aes (genitive aereus): copper, brass, bronze. The term was regularly used in the seventeenth century to denote copper alloys in manufactured items, notably coins. See also Cupra. Aetites: ‘eagle stone’. A hollow geode with a loose body within, which rattles. So called from the tradition that they were to be found in eagles’ nests. See Bromehead 1947. Agallochus: aloes. This may be the resinous heartwood of Aquilaria malaccensis (Thymelaeaceae, Aloe wood or Agalloch); also called ‘Lignum aloes’. Agaricus: general term applied to a fungus of the field. Agnus castus: ‘chaste tree’. Probably Vitex agnus-castus (Verbenaceae). Believed to have antaphrodisiac qualities (Pliny XXIV, 38). Agrifolia: holly, a species of Ilex, probably I. aquifolium (Aquifoliaceae). Alabastrina, Alabastrites, Alabastrum: alabaster. Plot (1677, p. 61), however, uses Alabastrina to denote powdery calcite. Album hispaniae: Spanish white. Alca hoieri: razorbill. Alca torda. Alcanna: henna, probably a reference to Lawsonia inermis (Lythraceae). Alces: elk. Alces alces. Alcyonium: a type of red coral or porus, according to Caspar and Johannes Bauhin. Alecteroides: Pliny (XXXVII, 53) counts alectoria among the varieties of Achates. Alga marina: a form of sea-weed.

Thomas Molyneux (1695, p. 405) mentions ‘the Asellus major vulgaris, or common Cod-fish’, while Willughby (1686, p. 165) gives ‘Cod-fish or Keeling’. Aldrovandi (1648, p. 145) illustrates a number of ‘Lapilli Asellorum piscium oceani’.

Plot (1686, p. 205) found these growing in Staffordshire, forming ‘perfect gritts naturally, requiring no Mill to make them into Oatemeal, as all other Oates do’. Avis paradisea: bird of Paradise. In 1598 Van Linschoten applied the name Avis paradiseus; Linnaeus later distinguished between a larger species, Paradisea apoda, and a smaller, Paradisea regia.

Babyroussa: a wild pig from the Celebes (Sulawesi). Babyrousa babyrussa. The vernacular name, meaning ‘pig-deer’, refers to the supposed resemblance of the tusks to antlers. Balanites: fossil barnacle. Balanus: barnacle. Tradescant (1656, p. 10) had several ‘Balani rubri’, referenced to Aldrovandi. Balaustia: ‘balaustines’. Probably Punica granatum (Punicaceae) – pomegranate, of which the fruits are known as balaustria. Used as an astringent and in the treatment of smallpox. Balena: whale of the Mysticeti or baleen whales group. They lack teeth but have baleen sheets forming filters in their mouths. Balsam: balsam. Bdellium: the name given to a number gum-exuding plants of the genus Balsamodendron (Burseraceae). Belemnites: belemnites. While Plot (1677, pp. 93-5, pl. iii, 4-5) refers rather haughtily to these being ‘thought by the vulgar to be indeed the darts of Heaven’, he has nothing to contribute to their understanding. Ashmolean (1708, p. 78) gives ‘Belemnites, The Thunderbolt.’ Ben: red ben probably refers to Silene dioica (Caryophyllaceae), white ben to S. vulgaris. Berillus: beryl. Betonica: betony. A member of the genus Betonica (Lauriaceae). Betula: birch, family Betulaceae. Betula sanguinea: bloody birch. Bezoar: a calacareous concretion, derived originally from the guts of goats but later applied more widely, to which apotropaic powers were attributed.

GLOSSARY OF LATIN TERMS

Cambogia: ‘gamboge’. Derived from Garcinia (Clusiaceae) species: see Gummi gotta. Camelus: camel. There are two species in the Old World: the dromedary, Camelus dromedarius, and the Bactrian camel, C. bactrianus. Camphora: camphor. The crystallized resin of Cinnamomum camphora (Lauraceae) Cancer: crab. Canis carcharia: great white shark. So called by Gessner (1620, pp. 173-8) and by Aldrovandi (1613, pp. 379-87). Now Carcharadon carcharias. Canis guiacensis: ‘Guinea-dog’. Canis piscis: dog-fish. Scyliorhinus canicula. Cantharides: ‘Spanish flies’ – a preparation derived from the beetle Cantharis vesicatoria, to be taken internally or used as an emplastrum for blistering. Capillus veneris: Tradescant (1656, p. 95) gives ‘Common Maidenhaire’. Refers to Adiantum capillus-veneris (Pteridaceae). Capra lybica: scimitar oryx. Capra sylvestris: wild goat. Today, according to different authorities, Capra hircus or Capra aegagrus. Capreolus: roe deer. Capreolus capreolus. Capsicum: ‘Guinea pepper’. The vernacular name is applied to Xylopia (Annonaceae), but it seems more likely that the species referred to here is Capsicum annuum (Solanaceae). Material included in the herbarium (c.1680) of Jacob Bobart the Younger and identified as ‘Guiney Pepper’ is certainly C. annuum. Carchedonia: carbuncle (chalcedony) – or possibly jasper: see Pliny XXXVII, 30. Cardamomum: cardomom. Applied typically to Eletharia cardamomum (Zingiberaceae), but also to other genera in the Zingiberaceae, e.g. Aframomum and Amomum. Cardonum: This name may refer to cardomom (Eletheria cardamomum; Zingiberaceae) or to cardoon (Cynara cardunculus; Asteraceae). Carduelis: goldfinch. Carduelis carduelis. Carneolus: carnelian.

Bruscus: probably the reference is to Ruscus (Liliaceae), either R. aculeatus or R. hypoglossum. Tradescant (1656, p. 163) gives ‘Ruscus, Bruscus, Oximersine, Butchers Broome’. Pliny (XVI, 27), however, uses the term to refer to figured maple. Bubalus: water buffalo. Bubalus bubalis. Bucardites: Plot mentions that some cordites (q.v.) are called by certain authors, on account of their size, ‘Bucardites, or stones like Bulls hearts’ Under the term Bucardites costatus he illustrates a fossil bivalve, Pholadomya lirata, and under Bucardites laevis he illustrates an internal mould from an Upper Jurassic fossil bivalve, Protocardia dissimilis. (Plot 1677, p. 127, pl. vii, 2-3). Buccinites: fossil shell (cf. Buccinum). Ashmolean (1708, p. 78) gives ‘Buccinites, The Trumpet-Fish.’ Buccinum: in modern terms, refers to trumpet-shaped marine gastropods, including whelks, etc. Within the catalogue the term presents many difficulties of interpretation, as outlined on p. 207 (above). Bufo: toad. Probably the common European toad, Bufo bufo. Bufonites: toad-stone. Ashmolean (1708, p. 78) gives ‘Bufonites, The Toad Stone, or Capsular Ichthyodont’. See also Lapis bufonis. Buphthalmus: oxe-eye, or Golden marguerite, Anthemis tinctoria (Asteraceae). See Pliny XXV, 42. Buxus: boxwood, a member of the genus Buxus, probably B. sempervirens (Buxaceae). Byssus: according to context, this term may refer to fine flax or to the filaments by which molluscs attach themselves to rocks. Cadites: Plot (1686, 198) uses the term to describe a barrel-shaped ‘formed stone’ – a fragment of a fossil plant stem with the ‘staves’ indicated by longitudinal lines. Caementum: cement or glue. Caementum gemmariorum, jeweller’s glue; Caementum tornatorum, turner’s glue. Calamus aromaticus: Tradescant (1656, p. 76) gives ‘Acorus verus, sive calamus aromaticus officinarum, sweet smelling flagge’. Acorus calamus (Acoraceae). Calcedonius: chalcedony. Calcedonius grandinosus: ‘hail-stone’ – chalcedony with white inclosures resembling a miniature hailstorm. Calculus: used to denote both a natural pebble of any sort, and also a stone from the urinary tract (e.g. Calculus humanus). Calybea: see Chalybea.

GLOSSARY OF LATIN TERMS

Coco: probably Coca nucifera (Arecaceae). Coloquintida: bitter apple. The reference is to Citrullus colocynthis (Cucurbitaceae), which was used as a purgative. Columbina: seemingly marle. Columbus: see Colymba, Colymbus. Columnetta: Italian rather than Latin name for a cast of the internal cavity of the stem of a crinoid (fossil sea-lily); known in English as a ‘screw-stone’. Ashmolean (1708, p. 78) has ‘Columellus, The Shaft’. See also Asteriae. Colymba groenlandica: puffin. Fratercula arctica. Colymbus arcticus: northern diver, black-throated diver or Arctic loon. Gavia arctica arctica. Colymbus maximus caudatus: great northern diver. Gavia immer. Colymbus podicipes cinereus: great crested grebe. Podiceps cristatus. Tradescant (1656, p. 4) owned a ‘Gorara or Colymbus from Muscovy: And another taken upon the Thames and given by Elias Ashmole, Esq.’ The positioning of the grebe’s feet towards the rear of its body gave rise to its alternative popular name, ‘arse-foot’, as given in the text. Concha: a shell. The OED records that the Latin term was originally confined to bivalves but later was extended to other shells including whelks, snails, trumpet-shells, etc., and that this wide variety of uses passed into modern languages. In the context of the present inventory it is of very little value in determining the kind of shell being described. Concha veneris: bivalve, possibly of the family Veneridae, which includes the genus Venus. Conchites: ‘cockle stone’; fossil shells, some of which are clearly bivalve molluscs while others (including some described as trilobed) are brachiopods. Plot 1677, pp. 100-2, 186; pls. iv, 8; xi, 21. Elsewhere Plot uses the term conchites to describe a block of shelly stone full of the brachiopod Tetrarhynchia tetraedra (1677, p. 99, pl. iii, 11) and also a fossil bivalve (p. 104). Conchites oblongus: fossil oyster, Gryphaea. Conchites striatus: fossil scallop, Plagiostoma. Plot 1677, p. 104. Contrajerva: ‘contrajerva’ usually refers to Dorstenia contrajerva (Moraceae), the rhizome of which has been used as a flavouring. Corallachatus: coral agate. Corallina: amongst the plants, it probably refers to a coraline form of lichen, e.g. Usnea or Cladonia, rather than the marine algae normally called Corallina. Corallium, corallus: coral, whether modern or fossilized. Cordites: Plot (1677, p. 127) mentions that at Headington Quarry ‘are plenty of Cordites, or stones in the form of hearts’. Perhaps fossils of irregular echinoderms of the genus Nucleolites. Corneolus: carnelian.

Cerasus: cherry. A member of the genus Prunus (Rosaceae). Cerri: probably a reference to Quercus cerris (Fagaceae), the Turkey oak. Certhia aviculum: tree-creeper. Perhaps Certhia familiaris, common tree-creeper from Europe or Asia, C. americana, American creeper, or one of four other known species. Cervus palmatus: fallow deer. Dama dama. Cervus volans: stag beetle. See Grew 1681, p. 162. Cetterack: Tradescant (1656, p. 98) gives ‘Ceterach, Asplenium, Spleen-wort’. A species of the fern Asplenium (Asplenaceae). Chalybea: the text gives ‘lead ore’, although the Chalybes of classical literature were noted for their production of steel. Chama: a heart-shaped bivalve, including present-day family Chamidae (and possibly others). Tradescant (1656, p. 10) possessed several specimens. Chamaeleon: chameleon. Common species found around the Mediterranean, Chamaelo chamaeleon. Chamepithos: Tradescant (1656, p. 99) gives ‘Chamæpytis, Groundpine’. Probably Ajuga chamaepitys (Lamiaceae). Chamites: fossil Chama. Chermes: normally applied to the dried bodies of the female scale insect Kermes ilices, from which a red dye is created. The usual spelling is kermes. Chrys petrosa: rock gold. Chrysocolla: borax. Plot described it as ‘a natural Borax of a blewish green’ (Gunther 1925b, p. 440), while Da Costa (1757, p. 106) includes it amongst the ‘green ochres’, giving Berg-grun as one of its equivalents. Chrysolampis: perhaps a kind of topaz: see Pliny XXXVII, 56. Chrysolithos: a kind of topaz: see Pliny XXXVII, 42. Chrysopatus: a kind of topaz. Chrystallus: crystal, used alternatively for rock-crystal and for crystalline formations of any other mineral. Cicer: chick-pea. Cicer arietinum (Fabaceae). Cinabaris nativa: native cinnabar. Cinamomum: the ‘cinnamon of St. Christophers’ [St. Kitts] is probably not a member of the genus Cinnamomum (a south-east Asian genus); perhaps from the family Lauraceae or Myrtaceae. Cinamonium album: ‘white cinnamon’. Refers to Canella alba (Canellaceae), brought from the Americas. Citrullus: refers to Citrullus colocynthis (Cucurbitaceae). Coagulum: rennet. Cocculus indicus: ‘Levant nut’. Probably Anamirta cocculus (Menispermaceae), an Indomalasian species. Cochlea: modern gastropod shell. Tradescant (1656, p. 11) lists eight varieties. Cochleamorphites: ‘snail stones’; fossil Cochlea. Plot 1677, p. 126, pl. vi, 11. Ashmolean (1708, p. 78) has ‘Cochlites, The Cochlite or Snail-stone’. 211

GLOSSARY OF LATIN TERMS

Cuscuta: ‘dodder’; recorded at Lambeth amongst the plants ‘growing in the garden of John Tradescant’ (1656, p. 106). A species of Cuscuta. Cyanus: ‘bluestone’. So called by Pliny (XXXVII, 38): perhaps a kind of lapis lazuli. Cyclamen: Whiteside gives ‘sowbread’, as does Tradescant (1656, p. 107), who grew several varieties. Today the common name is cyclamen (Cyclamen; Primulaceae). Cygnus cucullatus: dodo. This is the term favoured by Nieremberg (1635, p. 232). Raphus cucullatus. Cyperus: references are given to Cyperus longus (Cyperaceae), the rhizome of which is used in perfumery, and to Cyperus rotundus, a tropical weed similarly used.

Cornu ammonis: ammonites, ‘horns of Ammon’. Those described as having a golden coating were doubtless preserved in pyrite. Plot 1677, p. 109. Ashmolean (1708, p. 78) has ‘Cornu Hammonis sive nautilites, The Sayler (or as ’tis commonly call’d) the Snakestone’. See also Ophiomorphites. Cortex antor: unidentified medicinal bark. Cortex cariophyllus: probably the bark of cloves (Syzygium caryophyllus; Myrtaceae). Cortex guiaci: ‘pock-wood bark’. Genus Guaiacum (Zygophyllaceae). The English name probably alludes to the use of the wood in the treatment of syphillus. Cortex mandragorae: ‘mandrake bark’. Probably a reference to Mandragora officinarum. Cortex peruvianus: Peruvian bark. Cinchona spp. (Rubiaceae), although during the seventeenth century adulteration with other bark was widespread. Cortex tamarisssae: tamarisk bark. Two varieties, ‘italica’ and ‘vulgaris’, were grown at Lambeth by Tradescant (1656, p. 170). Probably a reference to Tamarix gallica (Tamaricaceae). Cortex winteranus: ‘Winter’s bark’. Probably Drimys winteri (Winteraceae), introduced from the New World by John Winter in 1578. Corvus aquaticus: cormorant. Phalacracorax carbo. ‘Sea-crow’ was an alternative common name, while ‘cormorant’ (Latin, ‘sea-raven’) has been current since the fourteenth century. Only their blackness associates them with crows. Corvus indicus cornutus: hornbill. The name given by Bont to the rhinoceros hornbill; Bucerotidae. See also Avis topaus rhinocerotis. Cos: whetstone. Costus amarus: ‘costmary’. Probably refers to Costus speciosus (Zingiberaceae), rather than to Chrysanthemum balsamita (Asteraceae) to which the term is more usually applied, although the latter was grown by Tradescant (1656, p. 105). Costus dulcis: sweet costus. Probably Canella alba (Canellaceae). Creta: chalk. Crocodilus: crocodile. Thirteen species of crocodile are known, as well as seven species of alligator. Gunther (1925a, p. 364) finds specimens of common crocodile (Crocodilus vulgaris) and West Indian species (Crocodilus acutus) amongst the remnants of the early collections. Crylonicus arborescens: see Phaseolus. Cubebes: probably Piper cubeba (Piperaceae), from Indonesian sources, or P. clusii, from west Africa. Cuculus: red gurnard. Aspitriglia cuculus. Cucurbita: a gourd, family Cucurbitaceae. Cupra: copper. See also Aes. Curcuma: turmeric. Presumably a cultivar of the Indian species Curcuma longa (Zingiberaceae). Curvirostra: used here adjectivally, ‘with a curved beak’, but appears as a substantive in Ashmolean 1708 (p. 78) as ‘The Wry-neb’.

Daucus creticus: Cretan parsnip. Probably Daucus guttatus (Apiaceae). Delphinites: the OED gives delphinite as an obsolete term for epidote, a yellow-green silicate of iron and lime. Delphinus: dolphin. A family of small cetaceans numbering about thirty-two species, including the dolphins, killer whales and pilot whales. Dendrites: a crystalline growth of branching or arborescent form. Grew (1681, p. 268) has ‘a Flint naturally adorned with the Images of certain epitomiz’d or minute Trees’. Dictamnus: dittany. Probably Dictamnus alba (Rubaceae). It was regularly called Dictamnus cretica (dittany of Crete) from the belief that this was the sole source. Didymoides: Plot (1677, p. 130) uses the term for a concretion in the form of a human scrotum (didymis – testicles). Doronicum romanum: Tradescant (1656, p. 110) grew this variety, identified as ‘great Doronicum or mountain Marygold’. Probably Doronicum pardalianches (Asteraceae), a species introduced to Britain. Draco marinus: sea dragon. The ‘Greater weever fish’, Trachinus draco. See Dioscorides, bk. II, cap. xiii. Perhaps equivalent to the Draco piscis of Aldrovandi (1602, p. 600). Dryites: petrified [oak] wood. Ebenus: ebony. Usually refers to wood of the genus Diospyros (Ebenaceae), from South Africa. Ebur: ivory. Echinites: fossil sea urchin.

Echinus brasilianus: ‘Brazilian hedgehog’, i.e., sixbanded armadillo. Euphractus sexcinctus. Echinus spatagus: a kind of sea-urchin (cf. Spatangius). Grew (1681, p. 139) calls it the ‘Mare-Maids-Head, or lesser oval Sea-urchin’. Electrinum: amber. Elephantus: elephant. Presumably either Loxodonta africanus or Elephas maximus. Emberiza: yellowhammer. Emberiza citrinella. 212

GLOSSARY OF LATIN TERMS

Plot’s discussion of it, however, is illustrated by a flint nodule (Plot 1677, p. 124, pl. vi, 1). The list of fossils in Ashmolean 1708 (p. 78) has ‘Fungites, The Champinion or Toad-stool’. Fungus holosericus: ‘silk-fungus’. Would seem to imply a filamentous fungus. Fungus lapideus: stone fungus. Plot (1686, p. 189, tab. xii, 3-4) applies the term to fossil fungi rather than to the stone-fungus of today, Polyporus tuberaster. Fungus pulverulentus: powder-fungus. Perhaps the Powder Cap, Nyctalis asterophora. See Plot 1686, p. 200. Fungus saxeus: this implies another ‘stone fungus’.

Emeu: emu. Dromaius novaehollandiae. Entrochus: wheel-shaped platelet from a crinoid, or fossil sea-lily. Ashmolean 1708 (p. 78) gives ‘Entrochus, The Bead, St. Cuthbert’s Bead’. See also Asteriae; Trochites. Ephippytes: Plot (1686, p. 198) uses the term to describe a saddle-shaped nodule, quoting Aldrovandi (1648, p. 519) as authority. Epithymum: ‘dodder of thyme’. Probably a member of the genus Cuscuta (Cuscutaceae) – not necessarily a specific parasite of thyme. Erithacus: robin or red-breast. Erithacus rubecula. See also Rubecula. Eruca glabra: a hairless caterpillar. The name is an invention of Plot (1686, pp. 239-40), ‘but I tye not up the Reader from his better choise, of a more agreeable name ... if he can impose a better on it’. Eryngium: ‘Sea holly’. The specimen concerned is so identified by Whiteside, while Tradescant (1656, p. 111) grew several varieties of it. Today the term is more commonly reserved for Eryngium campestre (Apiaceae) rather than E. maritinum.

Gagates: jet. Galanga: galangal. Term applied to members of the genus Alpinia (Zingiberaceae), especially A. galanga and A. officinarum. Gallus: domestic hen. Gallus domesticus. Gallus gallinaceus: dodo. This is the term adopted by Clusius (1605, pp. 99-101). Raphus cucullatus. Genistella tinctorium: ‘dyer’s broom’, probably a reference to Genista tinctoria (Fabaceae), the flowers of which yield a yellow dye. Gentian: gentian. A member of the genus Gentiana or Gentianella (Gentianaceae). Tradescant (1656, p. 116) grew three distinct varieties of it. Glans virginiana: fruit of a Virginian oak, probably Quercus virginiana (Fagaceae). Glaura augurelli: unidentified component of gold in alchemy. Glistum: perhaps the ‘glist’ or ‘daze’ described by Grew (1681, p. 320), who compares it to mica, except in ‘the smallness of the sparks’. Glycyrrhiza glabra: liquorice, probably Glycyrrhiza glabra (Fabaceae), the rhizomes of which are a source of liquorice. Gossipina, gaussipina: cotton, Gossypium sp. (Malvaceae). Grammatias: Lewis and Short (following Pliny) give ‘jasper striped with white lines’ but the term is applied also to stones seemingly naturally embossed with letters of the alphabet – much sought after by collectors. Arkell and Tomkeieff (1953, p. 69) characterize these ‘letter-stones’ as ‘igneous rock ... giving the appearance on its surface of letters’. Grana paradisi: grains of Paradise, or Guinea grains. Probably Aframomum melegueta (Zingiberaceae). Granatus: garnet. Gryllo talpa: mole-cricket. The ‘Musæum Pointerianum’ observes that it is ‘called the molecricket because it commonly lives under ground like the Mole ... & has therefore his fore-legs very brawny & strong’ (Gunther 1925a, p. 471). Gryphis: griffin. Gummi amoniacum: gum ammoniac. Usually refers to Dorema ammoniacum. Gummi animae: usually refers to gum from Zanzibar copals – fossil resin from the east coast of Africa.

Ferrum: iron. Ferrum nativum: native iron. Filicula: fern (polypody). Appears to be a general reference to a fern. Flora passionis: Passion-flower. A member of the genus Passiflora (Passifloraceae). Considerable Jesuit symbolism is associated with the flower parts, leaves and tendrils. Flores stanni: flowers of tin. Fluor: crystalline form of mineral; the term is not in current usage (fluorite now indicates calcium fluoride). In the catalogue the term may occasionally mean fluorite but at other times seems to refer variously to calcite or quartz (and may occasionally be something different again). Plot (1677, pp. 96-7) is confused in his discussion of what he calls spar and crystals, although spar might be an acceptable present-day equivalent to fluor. Ashmolean 1708 (p. 78) has ‘Fluor, Spar’. See also p. viii in the present volume. Fluor manica: the specimen illustrated by Plot appears to be a fragment of fossil nautilus covered with calcite crystals. Plot 1677, p. 140, pl. viii, 10. Fluor pseudo-adamas: quartz crystals known as ‘Bristol diamonds’. Fraxinites: petrified ash twig. Fringilla: chaffinch. Fringilla coelebs. Frutex marinus: a variety of coral (‘white sailor’s coral’ according to Ray 1686, p. 67). Fucus marinus: ‘sea-lichen’; see Aldrovandi 1602, p. 193. Fungites: ‘mushroom coral’. So called by Grew (1681, p. 280), ‘from a likeness it hath to a Toad-stool’. 213

GLOSSARY OF LATIN TERMS

Hieracites: ‘hawk-stone’. From the discussion by Plot (1677, p. 95) it is clear that the specimen was named solely for its resemblance to a hawk’s head (cf. Lapis bubonius). Hippocampus: sea-horse. The name was used by Pliny for the sea-horse, a member of the family Syngnathidae. There is only one genus, with about thirty species. Hippocephaloides: Plot (1677, pl. vii, 1) illustrates an internal mould from a fossil bivalve, Myophorella incurva, while Ashmolean 1708 (p. 78) gives ‘Hippocephaloides, The Horse-head. This is only the Kernel or Stone included in the Wry-neb’. Arkell (1947, p. 97) mentions the continuing use of the term ‘horses’ heads’ (or rather, ’osses ’eads) by quarrymen in Dorset. May correspond with the ‘Caput Equinum petrificatum’ listed by Tradescant (1656, p. 7) among his animal curiosities. Hippopotamus: hippopotamus. Hippopotamus amphibius. Hirundo: swallow. Hirundo domestica in the eighteenth century, now Hirundo rustica. The term is also quoted here as being applied by Rondelet (1554, pp. 284-6) to a species of flying-fish. Hirundo coccincinae: swallow of Cochin-China. Hispida: kingfisher. Alcedo atthis. Histricites: ‘porcupine stone’ – in fact a fossil sea urchin. Plot 1677, p. 106. Histrix: porcupine.

Oleo-resins from various species, especially Canarium, Bursera, Protium, Boswellia and Dacryodes (Burseraceae) and Amyris (Rutaceae). Gummi galbanum: galbaniflua gum. ‘Galbanum’ is the resinous extract of Ferula gummosa (Apiaceae). Gummi gotta: apparently a reference to gamboge, the gum from Garcinia sp. (Clusiaceae). See Cambogia. Gummi guaiacum: lignum vitae gum. From the genus Guaiacum (Zygophyllaceae). Gummi hederae: ivy gum. Probably from Hedera (Araliaceae). Gummi juniperi: juniper gum. Usually refers to Callitris quadrivalvis (Cupressaceae), from northwest Africa; other sources may include Juniperus communis and J. oxycedrus. Gummi lack: lacquer.

Tradescant (1656, p. 120) grew six varieties of Hellebore. The term here is usually applied to Veratrum album (Melanthiaceae), white hellebore; more generally ‘Hellebore’ is associated with the genus Helleborus (Ranunculaceae). Helleborus niger: black hellebore. Usually applied to Helleborus niger. Hepatica: probably a reference to Hepatica nobilis (Ranunculaceae). Hermodactylus: usually applied to Hermodactylus tuberosa (Iridaceae). Grown by Tradescant (1656, p. 122). Hiadula: Unidentified Indian fish with the outline of a carp.

Supposedly removed from the heads of swallow nestlings, these were prized as powerful amulets. Lapis cruce: stone naturally marked with a cross – a sport of nature. Aldrovandi (1648, p. 881) illustrates a number of ‘Lapidis Cruciferi differentiae’. Lapis dentalis: ‘tooth stone’. Probably an alternative name applied to Lapis bufonis after the discovery of their true origin. The alternative meaning – that of a stone bar-share for a plough – seems less appropriate here. Lapis favoides: the allusion to a honeycomb may imply that it is a fossil coral. Lapis florentinum: landscape (or ruins) marble. The term used by Plot is that also favoured by, for example, Valentini (1704, 56-7). Lapis judaicus: ‘Jew-stone’. The specimens illustrated by Plot (1677, p. 125) appear to be fragments from the spines of certain fossil sea urchins. Elsewhere he distinguishes two sorts, ‘male or yelong, female’ (Gunther 1925a, p. 446). Grew (1681, p. 266) characterizes various specimens of Lapis judaicus as shaped ‘like an akorne ... an almond ... a hazel catkin ... an olive-stone ... a pear’, etc., and equates them with the Tecolithos of Pliny (q.v.). Ashmolean 1708 (p. 78) gives ‘Lapis Judaicus sive Radiolus, The Ecknite spoke, or Fairy Cucumber’. The English term had a wider usage, however: Arkell and Tomkeieff (1953, pp. 36-7) suggest that it is in some instances a corruption of dew stone (and ultimately of dhu [Celtic, ‘black’] stone), applied to various limestone or basalt formations. Lapis lazuli: lapis lazuli. Lapis lydii: ‘Lydian stone’ – a form of basalt. See Da Costa 1757, p. 264. Lapis lyncurius: ‘lynx-stone’. The term was used for a variety of stone-like fungi (especially Polyposus tuberaster) as well as for fossils or other stones resembling fungi: see, for example, Freedberg 2002, p. 466. Lapis mammillare: Plot’s description suggests a (breastshaped) plate from the test (shell) of a fossil sea urchin. Plot 1677, p. 130. Lapis megaricus: ‘Megara stone’. Plot’s description indicates shelly limestone (Plot 1677, p. 99) but elsewhere he uses it synonymously with Lapis nephiri. Lapis mori: ‘moor-stone’. While used specifically to refer to granites by Da Costa (1757, pp. 273-4), the term has been applied more recently to grits and other freestones used in masonry (Arkell and Tomkeieff 1953, p. 77). Lapis nephiri: a fossiliferous marble-like rock. Plot 1677, 99. Lapis nephriticus: nephrite. Lapis ossiculum: the catalogue explains Lapis sive ossiculum as deriving from the head of the Drum fish (Sciaenidiae sp.), and as being efficaceous in the treatment of lithiasis.

be indicated, although Plot (1677, p. 58) thought it might indicate the presence of precious metal resources. He took his cue from other authors such as Ole Worm (1655, p. 6) and Daniel Major (1667), who ascribed the effect to certain ‘metallic vapours’, while Browne (1685, p. 57), in describing the ore from a particular Hungarian silver mine, writes that it ‘is commonly of a black colour covered with a white Earth or Clay; so that the streams where they work it become milky and whitish, and is that substance, I suppose which is called Lac Lunae, or the Milk of the Moon or Silver.’ Da Costa (1757, p. 82) refers to it a ‘a farinaceous powder’ or more simply as ‘chalk’ and lists its uses (especially as an absorbent) in medicine. See also Stenomerga. Lac mechoacannae / mecoachannae: Mexican lac. Probably a reference to Croton draco (Euphorbiaceae), ‘Mexican dragon’s blood’. Lacca pelucida: clear lacquer. Lacertus: lizard. Johnson describe the lizard as ‘resembling a serpent, with legs added to it’, and the reference to its limbs is underscored by the fact that lacertus is the word formerly used to indicate the biceps. Gunther (1925a, p. 364) noted one example of iguana (Lacerta iguana) that survived until his day from the Tradescant collection. Lamia: shark. Lanquash major: probably spikenard. Nardostachys (Valerianaceae). Lapis arenarius: sandstone. Lapis armenus: ‘Armenian stone’. Plot says of it that it is ‘ye same with Lapis Lazuli, but without gold spots, and of this is made ye blew cald – Vltramarine’ (Gunther 1945, p. 445). See also Da Costa 1757, pp. 104-5. Lapis auricularis: ‘ear-stone’. Ashmolean (1708, p. 77) gives ‘Auricularia Plotii, The Lid or Cover of a small Capsular Oister’. See also Otites. Lapis bononensis: ‘Bologna stone’. A mineral (barium sulphide) with the capacity of absorbing energy from the sun (giving its alternative name Spongia solis, or in Italian pietra lucifera) and re-emitting it as visible light. Grew (1681, p. 311) writes of the Royal Society’s specimen, ‘Its quality of shining in the Dark, after its being exposed a little while to the Sun, is now lost’, and mentions too its qualities as ‘a strong Emetick’. See also Freedberg 2002, pp. 314, 319-22. Lapis bubonius: ‘owl stone’; i.e., a stone fortuitously shaped like an owl’s head: see Plot 1677, 95, tab. iii, 7; the term is one of his own invention. Lapis bufonis: toad-stone. The fossilized teeth of raylike fishes, worn as amulets to which apotropaic powers were attributed. Plot (1677, p. 128) records that they were ‘first demonstrated by the Ingenious and Learned Dr Merret, in His Majesties presence, to be nothing else but the jaw-tooth or grinder of the Lupus marinus.’ See also Lapis dentalis. Lapis calaminaris: calamine. Lapis chelidonius: celidony or swallow-stone. 215

GLOSSARY OF LATIN TERMS

Ovis: sheep. Ovis aries. Ovum cretaceum: ‘chalk egg’ – a flint geode.

Obsidianus: obsidian. Ochra, ocra: ochre. Occuli cancrorum: ‘crabs’ eyes’. Described by Grew (1681, p. 120) as ‘A Crustaceous-stone ... growing as is commonly (but I doubt falsely) said, in River Crabs ... Both the Powder and the Magistery of Crabs-Eyes ... are all used in medicine’. Oculus belli: a synonym for Oculus catti? Oculus catti: term applied to a number of gemstones displaying a lustrous or ‘chatoyant’ effect (Evans 1950, passim) Olibanum: frankincense. Refers to a species of Boswellia, usually B. carterii (Burseraceae). Olor: mute swan. Cygnus olor. Ombria: fossil sea urchin; also referred to as ‘buttonstones’. These were supposed to have fallen to earth during violent showers. More depressed in form than Brontiae. Plot 1677, pp. 90-1. Onocrotalus: [eastern] white pelican. Pelecanus onocrotalus. Onyx: onyx. Opalus: opal. Ophiomorphites: ‘snake-stones’, more properly ammonoids. The fossils so named and illustrated by Plot (1677, p. 182, pl. xi, 12-13) all come from Carboniferous rocks; only those from later (Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous) formations are termed ammonites. The term ‘snake-stones’ was also applied more widely to a variety of annular stones and beads, to which various apotropaic properties were attributed; some ammonites were carved with snake-like heads in order to enhance their curiosity value. See also Ophites. Ophites: ‘serpent-stone’. Here as elsewhere, the term may have one of two meanings: Grew (1681, p. 261) writes of ‘Helick serpent-stone, Ophites Ammoneus’ (i.e. ammonite) but on p. 315 of ‘A ball of serpentine marble, called ophites from the winding of the veins’. Opium: opium. Opium thebaicum: refers to Papaver somnifera (Papaveraceae). Opoponax: Hercules’ houndwort. Probably Opoponax chironium (Apiaceae).

Otites: ‘ear stones’ – in fact, small fossil oysters. Plot 1677, p. 130, pl. vii, 12.

Paeonia: peony. A member of the genus Paeonia. Tradescant (1656, p. 150) grew four separate varieties. Palma Christi: castor-oil plant, Ricinus communis (Euphorbiaceae). See Ray 1686-1704, p. 166. Papilio: butterfly. Papilla: perhaps a breast-shaped stone (cf. Lapis mammillare). Passer troglodytes: wren. The term as used by Willughby (1678, 229, tab. 42) conflates both the present-day sparrow (Passer domesticus) and wren (Troglodytes troglodytes), but in the eighteenth century it certainly applied to the wren. Patella: the term is certainly used here in some instances to refer to limpets, but further examples may have come from some other family. Pavonis breynii: ‘Breyn’s peacock’ . Probably Campsis radicans. Pavonis occulus: peacock’s eye – a butterfly (Inachis io). Pecten: scallop of the family Pectinidae, though the name may have been applied to members of other families. Pectinites: fossil scallop. Ashmolean 1708 (p. 79) gives ‘Pectinites, The Escallop’. Pectunculites: a fossil form of Pectunculus is implied, but in Plot’s published texts he uses the term to refer to a variety of fossil scallops and, on occasion, to a fossil brachiopod of the Lower Carboniferous. Plot 1677, p. 185, pl. xi, 18-20. Pectunculus: bivalve mollusc, a small scallop or cockle. Penguini: penguin. There was clearly some doubt as to the precise identity of the specimen catalogued, and this doubt must remain. Petro selenae: parsley. Possibly a species of Selinum (Apiaceae). Tradescant (1656, p. 153) has ‘Petroselinum, vide Apium’, where he identifies nine varieties of parsley. Phaenicopter: flamingo. Probably the greater flamingo, Phoenicopterus ruber. Phaseolus: ‘tree bean’. The specimen listed is identified as Crylonicus arborescens. Probably a New World legume. Phengites: perhaps a form of gypsum. Pliny (XXXVI, 46) mentions a Cappadocian variety, ‘as hard as marble, white and transparent’. Phoca: seal. Probably the common seal, Phoca vitulina. Pholas: piddock; a member of the family Pholadidae. Ashmolean 1708 (p. 79) has ‘Pholas, The Pholad, or Shrouded Shell’. Phryganides: the ‘Musæum Pointerianum’ lists ‘Waterflies call’s Phryganides ... Angl. cados-worm’ (Gunther 1925a, p. 469). See also Johnston 1653, p. 87. Phu: both varieties major and minor probably refer to Valeriana officinalis (Valerianaceae).

GLOSSARY OF LATIN TERMS

Scordium cretense: ‘water germander’. Probably Teucrium scordium. Whiteside may have taken his translation from Tradescant (1656, p. 166), although there is no ‘Cretan’ epithet attached to it there. Scoria: slag or clinker. Scorpius: scorpion. Selenites: ‘moon-stone’; in fact, rhomboidal crystals of gypsum. Plot 1677, p. 81, pl. ii, 1a.

In a botanical context the term is also applied to ‘Ironworts’, a vernacular name for various members of the Lamiaceae, especially Siderites and Galeopsis. Silex: flint. Simia: monkey. Smaragdus: emerald. Smegma: a detergent composition. Plot gives fuller’s earth as ‘Smegma Fullonium’, mentioning also that ‘’tis good against Burns & Scalds, Swellings & the Gout’ (Gunther 1925a, p. 495).

GLOSSARY OF LATIN TERMS

Plot 1677, p. 68. Terra saponaria: soap-earth or fuller’s earth. Terra sigillata: ‘sealed clay’. Clays from a number of locations were acknowledged as having therapeutic or apotropaic qualities (Terra lignicensis, from Liegnitz, strigoniensis, from Strigonium (Esztergom), toccaviensis, from Takaj (Hungary) etc.; these were mined in quantity and sold as troches, stamped (or ‘sealed’) with a device indicating their origins. Terra [var.]: in addition to the above, there are other instances (e.g. Terra Darlastonensis, from Darlaston, Derbyshire; Terra Gallica and Terra Northamptonensis, both used in making tobacco pipes, and Terra Flandrensis, used for polishing metals) in which the usage is purely descriptive of the source, and while these terms may signal certain working properties they do not necessarily imply any medicinal qualities. Terebratula: Ashmolean 1708 (p. 79) gives ‘The Holeneb, or Oilet-shell’. Testudo: denotes both tortoise (Testudo terrestris) and turtle (T. marina). Gunther (1925a, pp. 3634) lists surviving specimens from the Tradescant collection of freshwater tortoise (Emys vulgaris) and loggerhead turtle (Chelone caretta). Thlaspeos: perhaps cress or mustard, but could be applied to numerous genera of the family Brassicaceae, including Thlaspi, Lepidium and Cardamine. Thricites: fossil bivalve, later Trichites plotii (Lhuyd). See Plot 1677, p. 128. Ashmolean 1708 (p. 79) gives ‘Trichites, The Bristle stone’. See also Arkell 1934, pl. xxx, f.2. Thus: frankincense. From Boswellia thurifera (Burseraceae). Thyites: a fine green clay: See Da Costa 1757, pp. 61-2. Tigris: tiger. Panthera tigris. Timbra: umber clay. Topasium: topaz. Topho fistuloso: hair-ball, formed in the guts of certain ruminants. Grew (1681, p. 35) observes that the hair in such balls ‘is wrought and compacted together, as Wooll is, by the workman’s hand in the making of a hat’. Tormentilla: ‘tormentil’; as grown by Tradescant (1656, p. 171). As Potentilla erecta (Rosaceae). Tragelaphus: species of deer.

Tripela: ‘stony Tripoli earth’. Trochilus: goldcrest. See Regulus cristatus. Trochites: evidently used both to designate wheelshaped platelets from fossil crinoids (see Asteria) (Plot 1677, p. 140) and fossil shells: Grew (1681,

gecko, and probably for other lizards too; although there is general agreement that Stellio had starshaped markings, opinions differ as to precisely which creatures the term referred to. It was used for a variety of lizards in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries; today it is applied to a common southern European lizard, Agama stellio. Stenomerga: powdered calcium carbonate may be indicated (see under Lac lunae, above). Tradescant (1656, p. 19) lists ‘Stenomarga, Agaricus mineralis, lac lunæ, ex dono T[homas] W[harton].’ Grew (1681, p. 347) also equates Stenomerga Agricolae with Lac lunae, as does Da Costa (1757, p. 82) for ‘Steinomarga’. Grew also calls it stone marrow, ‘because found between the Commisures of great Stones’. Storax calamita: ‘storax’. From Liquidambar orientalis (Hamamelidaceae). Strombites: fossil gastropod (sea snail). Plot 1677, p. 100, pl. iv, 1-2. Strombus: spirally twisted shells, including, no doubt, members of the present genus Strombus (and possibly others). Struthio camellus: ostrich. Sturnus: starling. Sturnus vulgaris. Styrax calamita: see Storax calamita. Suber: cork, the bark of the tree Quercus suber (Fagaceae). Succinum: amber. Sulphura: sulphur.

Tellina: bivalve shell from the family Tellinidae, which includes shells of the genus Tellina (and possibly others). Tradescant (1656, p. 13) had a number of them, referenced to Aldrovandi. Tellinites: fossil marine bivalve resembling a modern Tellin. Ashmolean 1708 (p. 79) has ‘Tellinites, The Tellinet, or Lesser Muscle-shell’. Terebinthizusa: probably Pistacia terebinthus (Anacardiaceae), called the Turpentine tree. Terra ampelitis: identified by Plot with cannel coal (see Gunther 1925a, p. 443). Terra ferruginea: oxidized pyrite. Plot 1677, p. 67. Terra fullonica: fuller’s earth. Terra lapidosa: marle. Plot’s description suggests weathered Gault clay with small gypsum crystals. 221

Glossary of Brazilian, Mexican, Nahuatl and other American Indian terms used for natural specimens listed in the catalogue Several of these terms derive (in the context of the Ashmolean catalogues) from Tradescant’s Musæum Tradescantianum (1656) where in turn a number of the Brazilian names are referenced particularly to Piso and Markgraf’s Historia Naturalis Brasiliae (1648). Many more items appear there with South American names than are listed in the Ashmolean catalogue. Others given here with the same authority are evidently the result of Plot and Lhwyd’s own researches: the wording for ‘A Sow’s head from Surat’, for example, is taken from Tradescant’s catalogue (1656, p. 7), but no reference to Piso and Markgraf appears there. Acarauna: a type of angel-fish, Chaetodontidae sp. Willughby 1686, App. p. 23. Catesby (1731-43, vol. II, p. 22) illustrates an ‘Acarauna major, pinnis cornutis’. Achiote, achiotl, achota: a name for Bixa orellana (Bixaceae), a source of annata, a red colourant.. Ahoay guacu: a type of nut-bearing tree. See Piso and Markgraf 1648, p. 49. Aì: sloth.

Piso and Markgraf 1648, p. 206. Boicinininga: rattlesnake, Crotalus druissus. More strictly the Neotropical rattlesnake, called in Spanish cascabel and in Portuguese boicininga.

Referenced to Piso and Markgraf 1648, pp. 145, 150, 163. One variety, G. maxima caudata

(Turdus oculo radiato) was popularly known as ‘the old wife’ (See Catesby 1731-43, vol. II, p. 22). Guaracapema: dorado or dolphin-fish, Coryphaena hipparus. Willughby 1686 p. 214, tab. O2; Piso and Markgraf 1648, p. 160. Guarauna: unidentified. Gurama: unidentified. Hoacoatl: rattlesnake, Crotalus sp.

Another item (and reference) from the Tradescant catalogue. Petimbuaba: perhaps Strongylura timucu, the needlefish, or Fistularia tabacaria, the pipe-fish, both of which are called petimbuaba. Compare the ‘tobaccopipe-fish’ of Grew (1681, p. 106); Piso and Markgraf 1648, p. 154. Pira aca: equivalent to the Monoceros piscis of Clusius (1605, bk. 6, ch 28); see also Willughby 1686, p. 150, tab. 14. Senembi: iguana. Family Iguanidae (over 700 species). Grew (1681, p. 45) gives ‘Senembi, a Lizard so called in Brasile. Also called Iguana.’ Catesby (1731-43, vol. II, p. 64) names it ‘Lacertus indicus, the guana’.

Tatu apara: armadillo. Tradescant (1656, p. 6) lists ‘Armadilla, or Encubartado, two sorts: Tatu Apara and also Tatu Tatupeba, 6-banded, Euphractus sexcinctus. See also Piso and Markgraf 1648, p. 232. Tatu mustelinus: armadillo, Chaetophractus sp. The names given both in Latin and in the vernacular

– the ‘weasel-hog’ or ‘weasel-headed armadillo’ (cf. Grew 1681, p. 19, tab. I) – confirm the specimen specifically as an eighteen-banded armadillo or cirquinçon. Tlauhquechul: roseate spoonbill, Ajaia ajaja. See Nieremberg 1635, p. 214; Hernandez 1651, [Historia animalium] p. 49. Tlilcoxochitl: vanilla. Probably Vanilla planifolia (Orchidaceae).

CONVENTIONS OBSERVED IN THE TRANSCRIPTIONS

The following conventions have been used in transcribing the texts of the catalogues. Spellings in Latin and in English, however deviant, have been preserved, generally without comment although occasionally, where the original texts are in English, missing letters have been added in square brackets in order to clarify meaning. Contracted forms are common in the Latin texts and are reproduced here as accurately as is possible within the limitations imposed by the typeface. The following forms are encountered: Either ˜ or ˉ is used, apparently for no other reason than personal taste, usually − but not always − at the end of the word: ã am e.g. quibusdã – quibusdam Dñae Dominae ẽ em e.g. longitudinẽ – longitudinem Dño Domino õ om e.g. rhõboidali – rhomboidali Dñi nri Domini nostri ũ um e.g. iterũ – iterum Desiđ Desiderius ñ no e.g. omniñ – omnino Joħ/Joħis Johannis ñ nn e.g. Chiñitica – Chinnitica Ar Armiger ã an e.g. triãgulo – triangulo Gũ gummus ğ ger e.g. armiğ – armiger NB: all ‘–que’ endings have been expanded Punctuation and capitalization have been preserved as in the original texts. In transcribing the headings, however, the use of upper and lower case has been standardized in order to impose some overall coherence on the structure, as has the use of bold type. With the same aim in mind, catalogue numbers have been rendered in bold throughout. Where independent entries appear on a verso, their transcriptions and translations are included in sequence within the main body of the text. Where they appear divorced from their appropriate place in the numerical sequence, they are inserted as closely as possible to the point at which they actually occur. Additions and deletions to the original texts are shown as follows: ru[-]is [-Imago] [-ovalis\quadratus] \\emeraux // Mar/m\or

illegible deletion legible deletion substitution for a deletion addition from the margin or verso addition from above the line

The annotation, deest, often shortened to d, indicating that an item has been declared to be missing, is so prevalent that while it is included in the transcriptions it has been omitted from the translations. Underlining, the significance of which is not always clear, similarly has been omitted. Further common abbreviations relating only to the coins and medals catalogued in the Book of the Vice-Chancellor have not been translated in that text. Their significance is discussed in the introduction to the catalogue, on p. iii.

INDEXES Note that two indexes, of English and Latin terms respectively, are provided and that they are complementary in nature. The index of English terms includes words in common use at the time the respective catalogues were compiled, whatever their linguistic origins. In the natural history sections, pre-Colonial Brazilian vernacular terms remained in use up to (and in some cases beyond) the eighteenth century for species for which a European nomenclature had yet to be developed. In some instances the terminology used in the translations provided by past curators and reproduced in the texts is at variance with that used today: in order to ensure recovery of all the relevant references (particularly those relating to natural history and materia medica), both indexes should be consulted.

1: Index of English terms Names taken from other contemporary languages and circulating in England in the seventeenth century are also given here. The national and county boundaries observed are broadly those in use at the time the catalogues were compiled. An alphabetical list of donors to the collection will be found under Donors.

2: Index of Latin terms The Index of Latin terms limits itself to descriptors of natural history specimens and materia medica. Since it is drawn from the texts themselves, the index inevitably contains various corrupt or spurious words that made their way into everyday use in the nomenclature of natural history, pharmacy, etc.; a few of these terms remain in current use. In the case of the zoological specimens, for example, the nomenclature of the earliest catalogues is pre-Linnaean while specimens added in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries are identified according to the system that remains in current use, although in some instances the names themselves have been refined in more recent years. No attempt is made here to reconcile differences of this kind. Note that some specimens are named in the catalogues only in English (or in some other language, as in the case of the pre-Colonial Brazilian terms) and hence do not appear in the following list: the Latin index should, therefore, be used in conjunction with that in English in order to recover complete listings. Note that the names of classical rulers, deities, etc are listed only in the English index.
