W. Daniel Wilson

    3 décembre 1950

    Sir Daniel Wilson fut un archéologue et auteur pionnier dont le travail explora en profondeur l'intersection de l'histoire et de la préhistoire. Son approche novatrice de l'organisation des collections archéologiques, inspirée des pratiques muséales danoises, a contribué à établir de nouveaux cadres chronologiques dans le domaine. Au-delà de ses contributions théoriques, Wilson fut un observateur et un chroniqueur perspicace, documentant méticuleusement le patrimoine architectural en voie de disparition et l'ethnographie des peuples autochtones qu'il rencontra. On lui attribue de manière notable l'introduction du terme 'préhistorique' dans le vocabulaire archéologique anglais, soulignant l'importance de l'étude des époques antérieures aux archives écrites. Ses écrits et ses entreprises artistiques reflètent un profond engagement envers la préservation et la compréhension du passé.
