Museum of antiquity : a description of ancient life : the employments, amusements, customs and habits, the cities, palaces, monuments and tombs, the literature and fine arts of 3,000 years ago
A popular one-volume survey of ancient Egyptian, Assyrian, Greek and Roman daily life, compiled by L. W. Yaggy and T. L. Haines and issued by Standard Publishing House in New York in 1882 for general American subscription readers. Wood-engraved plates reconstruct banquets, markets and monuments in dense crowd scenes, paired with symmetrical foliate headpieces framing small vignettes of figures or masks.
