EGYPTIAN ART IN
GOVERNMENT HOUSE..
SWEDEN.
AN ARCHÆOLOGIST'S.
DISCOVERY.
PAINTED GLASS 1,500
YEARS OLD,
Stokholm, August 12.-The disco- very that glass and woollen textiles wore imported to Sweden from Egypt 1,500 years ago, and that to day Swedish textile designs from Dalecarlia are woven on the same pattern as the modern textiles of Contral Egypt, has been made by Dr. Frederick Martin, a prominent Swedish art historian,g
A Swedish archaeologist while excavating a tomb from the early i Viking ago a few days ago found fragments of painted glass. Dr. Martin having been consulted on the matter declared that the glass came from the village of Ashmunain in Upper Egypt.
This place appears to have been an international centre of glass making during Roman timer, for specimens of its industry havo been found in China,
Dr. Martin has been able to trace the origin of Swedish provincial | textile art to an Egyptian town which formerly was renowned for its export of woollen products.
He believes that Egyptian or Jewish goldsmiths worked in Swe den in 500 A.D. -
Viking Civilisation. Professor G. Elliot-Smith, the eminent anthropologist,, expressed the greatest interest on being in- formed of the discovery yesterday.. - "Dr. Martin is an archeologist of well-established reputation," Pro- fessor Elliot-Smith stated. "I have no doubt of the correctness of bis main conclusion that the Viking civilisation was influenced by Egypt. I am more doubtful as lo the directness of the influence,
"Textile designs, gloss meking | and gold work are some of the things in which Egyptian influence is most conspicuously revealed. I this respect, therefore, the claims are very much what I would have expected.
"It is a discovery of the greatest interest and historical importance an importance which will be ̈nc- centuated if the directnem of the influgnes can be definitely establish. ed.
..
"The nearest parallel of which I am aware is the penetration of üle- phant designs, originally derived from the East, to Scandinavia. In some cases the reproduction was SO correct as to suggest that the influ- ence was direct. There is also ¿vi- dence that Viking ship designs were derived from Egypt.
** Through England?. “With regard to the route by which such influence travelled it is interesting to compare the evidence for the widespread activities of Eastern metal prospectors about 1000 s.c. They may be traced by the so-called "beaker" pottery and by their stone monuments, through Spain, Brittany and the West const of England, Wales and Sent: land to Scandinavia,
"In this case one would suppose that the influence came through England, and thence either by the same route or up the English Channel
"There is no doubt that from about 1500 8.0. Egypt was Europe's inspiration in glaswork. It is possible that the famous beads be- longing roughly to this period and found in the neighbourhood of Stonchenge are a parallel case of such direct influence.
