Excerpt from The Biblical Geography of Central Asia, Vol. 1 of 2: With a General Introduction to the Study of Sacred Geography, Including the Antediluvian Period In looking forward to the future advancement of the multifarious studies connected with Bibli cal Archaeology, I anticipate no small benefit to result from the spirited exertions of the Oriental Translation Committee - while, at the same time, I must regret that means are not taken to have their publications better known, and more widely circulated. Among the works which have appeared under their countenance, having a spe cial reference to the subject of these volumes, may be mentioned the translations of the Shah Nameh of Firdausi, by Atkinson of hiirkhond's History of the Early Kings of Persia, by Shea of the Geography of Sadik Isfahani, by Ozcseley; and of the History of Vartan and other works on Armenia, by Neumann.
