Recently revealed documents allow for new insights, particularly with regard to unsuccessful publication projects, and include an archaeological poem and a preface by Hugo Obermaier to one of Boyle’s unpublished books, reproduced here as appendices}, title={From Poetry to Prehistory: Mary Boyle and the Abbé Breuil}, type={Text}, URL={http://rcin.org.pl/Content/130403/PDF/WA308_103418_From-Poetry_I.pdf}, keywords={Mary E.
