		It is therefore John Aubrey who is historically acknowledged to be the first antiquarian to recognise the true importance of Avebury when he came across it by chance in the January of 1649 whilst out fox-hunting and is accepted as being responsible for bringing it to the attention of the world at large.
		Sir Richard Colt Hoare and William Cunnington carried out extensive surveys of Wiltshire's many prehistoric sites during the early 19th Century and their work was recorded in Colt Hoare's "Ancient History of North and South Wiltshire".
		The Cunnington name was again associated with Avebury during the early part of the 20th Century when William's great grandson Benjamin (1861-1950) was to become the curator of Devizes Museum.

		Hundreds of pre-historic pots dating from 2000 BC to 800 BC excavated from the Stonehenge area are literally crumbling in the museum basement where they are stored due to a lack of funding, reports the London Times.
		Most of the pots were discovered between 1800 and 1810 by Sir Richard Colt Hoare and William Cunnington, two early pioneers of British archaeology.
		They now sit on basement shelves at the Devizes Museum in Wiltshire and are in such a bad state of decay that the museum has applied to the National Lottery Heritage Fund in an effort top save the artifacts from literally falling to pieces said the newspaper.

	Excavations at Stonehenge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The first recorded excavations at Stonehenge were carried out by William Cunnington and Richard Colt Hoare.
		In 1798, Cunnington investigated the pit beneath a recently fallen trilithon and in 1810, both men dug beneath the fallen Slaughter Stone and concluded that it had once stood up.
		Antrobus appointed a mining engineer William Gowland to manage the job who despite having no previous archaeological experience produced some of the finest, most detailed excavation records ever made at the monument.

		In the course of the preparations though he aquired a rapidly growing interest and knowledge, became a collaborator, and was soon described by a fellow enthusiast as "barrow mad".
		Colt Hoare wrote the work with the support of William Cunnington who had assembled much of the archeological information on excavation sites but died in 1810.

		Richard Colt Hoare and William Cunnington, two much under-rated field-workers, allow us to add a full century to that ancestry.
		Two excellent biographies (RH Cunnington's From Antiquary to Archaeologist, and K Woodbridge's Landscape and Antiquity) quote a number of letters which suggest that there is much to be learnt of their field techniques.
		From the excerpts published we learn that the pickaxe and spade were much favoured; however, Colt Hoare and Cunnington also used a mason's trowel and Colt Hoare even had an excavation tool especially manufactured.

		It's quite likely that you have heard little or nothing of them before now, but they were the labourers hired by William Cunnington for his and Colt Hoare's archaeological work in the area around the turn of the 19th Century.
		They are almost always dismissed as 'mere labourers' in archaeological historiographies, but in actual fact Cunnington trained these two men and they worked on all of his projects - often unsupervised - for several years until his death in 1810.
		This plan, of course, is dependant on the vain hope of getting funding from somewhere, but I thought that, at the very least, you might be interested to hear about the two men that even Colt Hoare referred to as his "Heytesbury Pioneers".
