  desc: SE would naturally be much more pleasant for me to present my interpretation of the pre-history of China to the Society of Antiquaries in a more definite and concise manner than is » possible at present. May I be allowed to mention that the University of London has invited me to deliver a lecture on this subject, and I am now writing them and asking for a similar postponement until the winter of 1928 to 1929, I am also writing to the Swedish Legation in London to ask our Minister to negotiate with you and with the Uni- versity of London to ascertain whether the desired postpone- ment is possible or not. I would like to repeat thet I am extremely anxious to take advantage of the two invitations from your city and to combine tnem under the same date, Consequently, I am prepared to go to London this winter if it is considered absolutely necessary. However, I feel fully convinced that amyear later, when the material has fully studied, I will be able to give a much better representation of my arecheological work in Ohina. Meanwhile I am quite willing to promise that I will, before my lectures in London, give no other lectures on my archeologicel work outside Sacndinavia., Most respectfully yours,

It would give me great pleasure to avail myself of your offer, however I wish to respectfully inquire whether these lectures might not be postponed until the winter 2928 to 1929 for the reasons as explained below: First, we are now working very earnestly to prepare our new museum, Ostasiatiska Samlingarna /the East Asiatic Collec- tions/ for the opening which will take place on the 15th of January 1928, Second, and this is the most serious reason for re- questing a postponement, we are now preparing the definite mono- graphs on the Prehistoric Sites of China, New developments and considerable revision of my earlier views are in sight and it
