Steiner 1840-1906 a Georgia physician planter folklorist and amateur archaeologist whose excavation of the Etowah mounds near Macon Georgia form the core of the largest collection of artifacts from a single individual to have been donated to the Smithsonian ; with his bookplate ; "During the latter half of the 19th century and into the early part of the 20th century Roland collected a massive quantity of prehistoric artifacts from areas throughout Georgia; including Mound C at the Etowah Mound site near Cartersville Georgia and sites in Burke Columbia Floyd Hancock and several other counties. He became a member of the Georgia Historical Society on July 7 1886 the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 1899 and the Society of American Folklore in the same year. In his lifetime Roland collected more than 100000 Native American relics from Georgia and South Carolina. Throughout the 1890s and early part of the 1910s Steiner sent approximately 78000 artifacts including copper axes copper headdresses conch shell cups and gorgets pearl beads pottery vessels pottery statuettes and other artifacts made of polished and chipped stone to the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History in Washington D.C. His private collection at the Smithsonian is the largest private collection in the museum. Steiner also has collection of artifacts located at the American Museum of Natural History in New York New York and the Field Museum in Chicago Illinois." ; "Dr. Steiner has been for about three years at intervals making deposits of aboriginal implements and objects in the National Museum. His collection amounts now to approximately 75000 objects. They have been gathered by him in eastern Georgia principally in Columbia and Burke Counties though there is a very important collection made by himself from the Etowah Mounds in Bartow County.Not the least inconsiderable portion of Dr. Steiner's collection nor that of least value is the result of his own excavation at the Etowah Mounds or as they have been known the Tumlin Mounds on the plantation of Col. Tumlin Etowah Creek Bartow County. These are probably the most renowned mounds of which we know and have produced the rarest and most curious objects. It appears to me of the highest necessity that we should retain the objects from this mound that belong to Dr. Steiner to the end that they may supplement the collection of Prof. Thomas. I would consider it almost an irreparable loss one not to be calculated in dollars and cents if the objects belonging to Dr. Steiner should be taken away and the collection from the Etowah Mound broken up. The purchase of this collection from Dr. Steiner will materially facilitate the complete excavation of the Etowah Mounds and insure to the Museum the possession of their riches in its entirety."--Thomas Wilson Curator Division of Prehistoric Anthropology January 19 1898. ; contributors included Nicasio Juan Gallego 1777-1853 Francisco Maria Raynouard Taver John Nicols Marie-Charles-Joseph Pougens 1755-1833 Jacob Pontusson De la Gardie Robert Southey 1774-1843 Guy Arnault Felix Torres Amat 1772-1857 Joseph del Castillo Jose Maria Zuaznavar y Fracia Alberto Rodríguez de Lista y Aragón 1775-1848 Romanillos Benito Ortega Manuel López Cepero y Ardila 1778-1858 and others ; G scarce <br/> <br/> Madrid, en la Imprenta Real, 1832. hardcover
