Arthur H. Beavan continued his survey of science in Imperial London, published in 1901, with this look at the archaeological societies:

There are two Societies in London devoted to the fascinating subject of archaeology, viz. the British Archaeological Association, Sackville Street, and the Royal Archaeological Institute, Hanover Square, the latter - the older of the two - having been established about fifty-eight years.

Both these Societies are doing good work by holding series of meetings, when all sorts of facts relating to the historical past of Britain are communicated, and by causing excavations to be made in those parts of the country where Roman and other antiquities may be found.
