Abstract
IT is a striking tribute to the work and personality of John Linton Myres that the contents of the thirty-seventh issue of the Annual of the British School of Archæology at Athens consists, not as is usual, of records of research work of members of the School in the year under review, but of a number of papers presented to him in honour of his seventieth birthday by fellow workers in the field of the archæology and early history of the Eastern Mediterranean. A larger number of friends and colleagues, of whom a list is given, have contributed towards the cost of publication. It is appropriate that the British School should delight to honour one who is chairman of its Committee of Management, has been a staunch supporter of its work throughout the greater part of its existence, and is one of its students of longest standing. There will be many who will regret that the circumstances have precluded the inclusion of a like tribute from those whose province lies in other fields of learning and inquiry in which Prof. Myres has achieved an eminence no less worthy of commemoration than his archæological studies in the Eastern Mediterranean.
