An interesting and attractive early 18th century plan of the Roman city of Verulamium, near modern day St. Albans, Hertfordshire which was drawn and engraved by William Stukeley and Parker, respectively, and published in [Stukeley’s] Itinerarium curiosum (London: 1724).

William Stukeley (7 November 1687 ? 3 March 1765) was an English antiquarian, physician, and Anglican clergyman. A significant influence on the later development of archaeology, he pioneered the scholarly investigation of the prehistoric monuments of Stonehenge and Avebury in Wiltshire. He published over twenty books on archaeology and other subjects during his lifetime.
