Abstract

Between the years 1898 and 1922, Horace Sandars combined his daily work as a mining engineer with the study of the Antiquities of the province of Jaén and, above all, the region of Linares. In that surveys he discovered several Roman inscriptions as well as ancient mines and mining spots. It also carried out excavations in the Iberian sanctuary of Collado de los Jardines. In the last years of his life, he donated many of his archaeological collections to the Spanish National Archaeological Museum. Throughout his life, he kept an institutional close relationship with the Spanish Royal Academy of History.
