Project | Cyzicus, Mysia and Bithynia |
Scope and Content | Part of a series of images from the survey 1902-1906 carried out by F.W. Hasluck at Cyzicus and surrounding territory in Anatolia, under the auspices of the British School at Athens. The original description in the SPHS register reads: "Cyzicus: view of St. Simeone". |
Notes | Date based on Hasluck's assistance to A.E. Henderson in the survey of Cyzicus, mentioned in his 1910 monograph (Cyzicus: Being Some Account of the History and Antiquities of that City, Cambridge: CUP). Although F.W. Hasluck and A.E. Henderson were both listed as donors in the SPHS Negative register, the photograph was most likely taken by A.E. Henderson. |
