This volume is a collection of papers related to different aspects of obsidian studies (mainly geology, geochemistry, and archaeology) in Northeast Asia. Special focus is on methodological aspects of acquisition and comparison of geochemical data for obsidian sources generated by different analytical methods (NAA, XRF, ICP–MS, and EPMA) and laboratories, conducted in this region for the first time. The updated situation with obsidian source studies in Japan, Russian Far East, and Korean Peninsula is presented.

About his Lecture "On Some Instances of the Power of God manifested in his Animal Creation" which was perhaps a side-swipe at Darwin? Two pages, 12mo, some staining and edged with sellotape, but text is a scrawl and occasionally hard to interpret, including the loss of a couple of words under a stain. Full text as follows: "By the post I forward to your Lordship a Copy of the Lecture ["and" scratched out] as printed by the Committee of the Y.M. Xian Assoc.][Young Man's Christian Association -SEE NOTE BELOW] , and the [Copy?] which was placed in my hands to show what was subsequently objected to, by one at least of the Committee through whose influence it was determined to omit the Lecture in the usual annual Volume. | I could wish, if your Lordship has not read the Lecture, that you would favor me with an unbiased perusal of it - though after newspaper comments that can hardly be hoped for - before you look over the proposed expurgations: and, in reference to p.34, to understand me as addressing a body of fellows [word or two covered by stain "arrived"?] at Man's estate, and of almost every [??] of the Reformed Church. The imperative condition of attaining to any [?] view of truth, expressed by our R.S. [Royal Society] motto 'nullius in verba', perhaps unduly preoccupied the Naturalist's mind in his appeal to them. | Please to return me the [scored? "purged" deleted] and altered [&?] Copy, confidentially submitted to your examination [and return me]". Note: Owen delivered a Lecture entitled "On Some Instances of the Power of God manifested in his Animal Creation" to the YMCA at Exeter Hall (published in 1864), hence Owen's reference to "p.34". Notes: a. There is a footnote referring to Lord John's "The obstacles which have retarded moral and political progress : a lecture" (pub.1856);b. See Owen's entry in the Oxford DNB. See Image.
