Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LEO-LOB
LLWYD, EDWARD (166o-1709) , British naturalist and antiquary, was
born
  in
Cardiganshire
  in 166o. He was educated at Jesus
College
 ,
Oxford
 , but did not
graduate
 ; he received the degree of M.A. however in 1701. In 169o, after serving for six years as assistant, he succeeded R.
Plot
  as keeper of the Ashmolean museum, a position which he retained until 1709. In 1699 he published Lithophylacii Britannici Ichnographia, in which he described and figured various fossils, personally collected or received from his
friends
 , and these were arranged in cabinets in the museum. They were obtained from many parts of
England
 , but mostly from the neighbourhood of
Oxford
 . A second edition was prepared by
Llwyd
 , but not published until 176o. He issued in 1707 the first volume of Archaeologia Britannica (afterwards discontinued). He was elected F.R.S. in 1708. He died at Oxford on the 3oth of June 1709.
