In other words English ethnographic objects represent 95 per cent of all UK ethnographic objects, and 9 per cent of the entire PRM archaeological collections.
Notes attached to this page:
* Unfortunately the Other category for the UK, European and Global figures in all charts is not calculated on the same basis as for the English collections ( David: link to previous note about English Other ). For this reason they cannot be analysed in the same detail.
