Abstract
Abstract Evans had secured the services as assistant of Duncan Mackenzie … a Scot with an inaudible Highland voice, a brush of red hair, an uncertain temper, a great command of languages, and a great experience in keeping the records of an excavation. Arthur Evans recognized his gifts and endured his suspicious temper and his valetudinarian ways with exemplary patience. His own tasks, apart from general direction, were to decide where to dig, and to examine everything that was found: tasks in which his curious intuition of antiquity amply justified itself. It is interesting, in the light of forty years of later research, to go through his note books and to see how incredibly quickly he recognized things for what they were. Joan Evans, Time and Chance, 329–30
