Abstract

BEFORE rising, further resolutions were adopted by the Congress of Prehistoric and Protohistoric Sciences. The invitation to hold the next meeting at Oslo was accepted and the president-elect, Prof. A. W. Brögger, of Oslo, who has acted as joint general secretary of the first meeting, was inducted into the chair by Sir Charles Peers, the retiring president. It was then resolved that research committees should be appointed to investigate specific problems and carry out certain specified pieces of work. One committee will investigate the relations which subsisted between the Ægean world and the Balkans and Danubian countries. Another is to study problems related to the civilisation of the western Mediterranean. Prof. Gordon Childe has been entrusted with the compilation of an international vocabulary of technical terms in ærchology, with the co-operation of all countries represented at the Congress while it is an instruction to the organising committee of the next Congress to investigate the possibility of a report on the systems of classification adopted by different schools of archæology.
