I have an interesting article on ancient lamps that was published in
1906 and I have put it online for those who may be curious. A few
things in it have since been shown to be wrong but it is still a very
interesting read and an insight into the thinking of its day.
There are 24 illustrations - mostly towards the end - but well worth
ploughing through.

Enjoy your read!
