PARETO VILFREDO: (1848-1923) Italian Engineer, Economist and Philosopher. Pareto made important contributions to economics, sociology and mathematics. The Pareto principle was named after him. A fine A.L.S., `Vilfredo Pareto´, a bold and large signature, four pages, 8vo, Céligny, 24th March 1904, in French. A lengthy and clean letter by Pareto, stating in part `I depart tomorrow to Italy, I will be back here towards the 15th of April. I have been a little lazy writing articles, and this is the reason why you have not received any…. I still work on my manual, but it progresses like a turtle´, further referring to the political situation in France `People say that Combes will fall, I really regret. Believe me, actually there is nothing worse for the bourgeoisie than getting bogged down in a fake security. Its end can only come from one of the following two sides, either a big European war, or from the revolutionary excesses. It is true that Combes could be replaced by someone worse… Have you seen that the law related to the weekly rest in Italy (it was in fact the Sunday rest) has not been approved at the Chamber.´ Pareto further again makes interesting comments about the Italian political situation, and before concluding states `The courses at the stock exchange of Paris are fully distorted by the arbitrary intervention of the stockbrokers. If the war continues and spreads, you will see what a great catastrophe has been prepared.´ A rare letter of very good content. EX    Emile Combes (1835-1921) French Statesman. Combes led the ''Bloc des gauches'', left political parties from 1902 to 1905.

Naqada I-II Periods, c.3900-3200 BC. A group of three black-topped pottery vessels of varied size; the larger ovoid jar with everted rim, the smaller neckless vessels with slightly thickened rims; provided with a custom-made display stand and carry case. See Sowada, K.S., Black-Topped Ware in Early Dynastic Contexts, in Journal of Egyptian Archaeology, vol.85, 1999; Adams, B., Predynastic Egypt, Shire Egyptology 7, Princes Risborough, 1988; Petrie, W.M.F., Naqada and Ballas, London, 1895; Petrie, W.M.F., Corpus of Prehistoric Pottery and Palettes, London, 1921; Wodzinska, A., A Manual of Egyptian Pottery. Volume 1: Fayum A – Lower Egyptian Culture, Boston, 2010. 8.1 kg total including cases, 12.5-24.5cm (5 - 9 1/2"). Ex London gallery; deaccessioned from the Wakefield Museum, West Yorkshire, UK, in the mid 1980s; accompanied by an academic report by Dr Alberto Maria Pollastrini; this lot has been checked against the Interpol Database of stolen works of art and is accompanied by AIAD certificate number no.10995-181550. The three vessels belong to B class according to Petrie’s classification of Predynastic material (Petrie, 1896, 36-37; Petrie, 1921, pl. I-VIII"). This pottery type is generally made from Nile silt with organic and non-organic inclusions, with a polished red surface and a distinctive blackened area below the rim, the precise nature of which is still under debate. It was probably produced by placing the vessels upside down in reducing organic material immediately after firing (Adam, 1988, p. 20; Sowada, 1999, pp. 85-86"). The 'black-topped' ware was the most common funerary pottery during Naqada I and Naqada II periods, with a small volume of production in the Naqada III, Early Dynastic and Old Kingdom periods. The taller vessel dates to the Naqada IIC-D periods (Wodzinska, 2010, p.135"). The smaller ones probably date back to the Naqada I period (Wodzinska, 2010, p.101-118"). [3] Fine condition, repaired.

A vellum manuscript of 123 leaves bound within wooden boards, the front upper with incised decoration of a cross, two paintings of guardian angels inside; the contents include the Awdä Nägäst (Cycle of the Kings) and a zodiac; preserved in the original pouch with straps and inner case. See Conti Rossini, Carlo. 1941, Lo ‘Awda nagast scritto divinatorio etiopico, Rassegna di Studi Etiopici 1, 127-45; Baxter, R.M. 1977. Predicting the future with lakes and rivers : a note on the Awda Negast, Limnology and Oceanography 22,4, 777-80. 887 grams, 20cm (8"). Acquired in London at an antiquarian book fair, c.1990; accompanied by a detailed previously researched cataloguing sheet; this lot has been checked against the Interpol Database of stolen works of art and is accompanied by AIAD certificate number no.10970-180967. This is a divination manual used by a fortune teller. A composite volume with pages of different sizes and by many scribes, with numerous illustrations, in its original carrying case. The primary texts are: 1) The Awdä Nägäst (Cycle of the Kings"). An Ethiopian divinatory text, probably originally composed in the 15th century. There are 16 full-page circular diagrams. These tables (awd) allow the diviner or fortune teller to find answers to specific questions posed by his clients. The sixteen tables are each named after Ethiopian lakes or rivers and always have the same basic structural format, differing only in the sequence of the various sectors. 2) Dialogues of the stars (zodiac"). Subsidiary texts include additional divinatory texts. [No Reserve] Fine condition.
