Contributions to the History, Topography and Epigraphy of the Provincia Galatia". This and the following two notebooks list the texts of 489 inscriptions (but numbered to 486), with discussions of various sites. The inscriptions are classified as A (architecture), P (political), R (religious), and C (Christian).

2. Texts 194-388(a) with extended notes on Imperial Estates at Sisma, Obruk, A Roman Imperial Estate. Has one photograph included, and and inserted postcard of congratulations from W.M. Ramsay dated 15 March 1912.
3. Texts 389-486. There are towards the middle some lengthy analyses and comments made including: the eirenarchos, the imperial estate, the Colonia Antiochia Caesaria (Antiochia ad Pisidiam), Augustopolis, Julia-Ipsus. Some inscriptions re-worked with pencil comments. One photograph included.
4. Heading on first page "Inscriptions of the Axylon" with inscriptions numbered 1-200 in ink, together withus an unnumbered inscription in pencil from Konia Rodromos.
5. Titled on flyleaf "Inscriptions of Eastern Phrygia. (Abbreviation for Slips 'E.P.')", containing 41 pages of inscriptions, unnumbered but organised by location, in red ink. Entries are on the right-hand pages of the opening, with some annotations added on the blank left pages. Some numbers apparently added later. Pages 41 - 44 contain additional inscriptions in blu-black ink. Loosely inserted, a folded sheet headed "Seljuk Art" with a pencilled text, apparently a draft of a letter to a newspaper in response to a letter of Lady Brooke. It appears that Buckler and Calder wish put a positive slant on comments she has made: "It is of course a matter for regret that the Turks are obliged to use their historic buildings to house soldiers and munitions of war; but all who are interested in the archaeology of A.M. must find comfort in the fact that they are building schools and colleges before they build barracks." |
