This article by Dalrymple, who is a favorite of mine, is a beaut.........I'm already chasing down his sources. I guess I have to get the book on the Lindisfarne Gospel as well. Thanks! Your blog is a favorite.

I remember in H.V.Morton's "Through lands of the bible" -- itself a picture of a vanished world -- a similar general reference, when he went to visit the Nitrian desert.
