This volume is a timely exploration of many facets of collecting
and collectors. It brings together sixteen papers originally
presented in two colloquia and a workshop at the 2017 Annual
Meeting in Toronto. Part 1, Collecting and Presenting the Etruscans
in North America, focuses on a select number of collecting
narratives that demonstrate how the art and material culture of a
then little-known Italic culture made its way to the United States
during the mid- to late 19th and early 20th centuries. Part 2,
Satis sit una aliqua gemma: Collecting Classical Gem from Antiquity
through the 19th Century, explores the significance that collecting
antique gems acquired across time and space, as well the reasons
why these objects remained highly valued and sought-after
collectibles from antiquity to the modern era. Part 3, Researching
Ownership Histories for Antiquities in Museum Collections, draws
attention to discoveries that have been made through provenance
research, and also to the challenges that shape the investigation
of provenance.
