Zeitschrift für Ethnologie
A periodical of the Berlin society for anthropology, ethnology and prehistory, published in Braunschweig in 1869 by the German societies for anthropology and ethnology for a scholarly readership. Its plates show prehistoric stone tools and objects: a flat disc with a central hole, flaked stone implements drawn from two sides, a tapered polished axe, and perforated stone axes shown from front, side and cross-section views. A designer could take from them the clean, hatched pen-line technique of scientific technical drawing and the value of plain orthographic views shown in labelled sequences.
