Excerpt from The Celtic Inscriptions of Gaul, Vol. 5: Additions and Corrections
This paper is miscellaneous: it begins with a recently discovered group of inscriptions, which have not yet been edited with Special regard to their philological characteristics, and it ends by returning to the Coligny Calendar. Our Celtic inscriptions are so scarce and therefore so enigmatic in their formulae, that there is little hope of extracting their meaning except by attacking them repeatedly, and the greater the number of scholars who do so the greater the h0pe of tenable results. I flatter myself that I have made some progress, but I claim the right of further revision, whether as the result of the spade exposing new finds to the light of day or of philologists making fruitful suggestions leading to better ways of treating the material already in hand. It is needless to say that this process of revising and re-revising, one scholar improving on another's conclusions, is not agreeable to a certain class of minds; but I do not believe that an Academy so young as ours counts many Fellows who have a blank wall of finality before their eyes. When we cease revising the results obtained by ourselves and others, we may take it that we have ceased learning.
