Abraham Gorlaeus, (the Latinized name he is usually known under), or Abraham van Goorle (original name), (1549 — 1608) was a Flemish antiquary. == Importance == Gorlaeus published ''Dactyliotheca'', the catalog of engraved gems in his cabinet of curiosities.〔Notably published at Antwerp by Plantin in 1609: ().〕 It was the first extensive repertory of Greco-Roman intaglio gems. Such gems had been avidly collected for the previous century, at first in Italy.〔David Jaffé, "Aspects of Gem Collecting in the Early Seventeenth Century, Nicolas-Claude Peiresc and Lelio Pasqualini", ''The Burlington Magazine'' 135 No. 1079 (February 1993:103-120).〕 In 1609, the cabinet was purchased on behalf of Henry, Prince of Wales, an isolated early example of English interest in engraved gems.〔Roy Strong, ''Henry Prince of Wales and England's Lost Renaissance'' (1986:199).〕 Gorlaeus' ''Dactyliotheca'' remained useful for the rest of the century; it was republished by Jakob Gronovius in 1695, as part of his ''Thesaurus Graecarum antiquitatum''.〔Noted in Campbell Bonner, "A Miscellany of Engraved Stones" ''Hesperia'' 23.2 (April - June 1954:138-157) p. 154; (1695 title page ). (Online )〕 In his cabinet of curiosities, Gorlaeus had a collection of rare shells, which was of sufficient interest to be purchased by the States-General of the Dutch Republic as a present for Marie de' Medici, for 9000 guilders.〔J.J. Dodt van Flensburg, "Resolutien der Generalen Staten uit de XVII eeuw", in ''Archief voor kerkelijke en wereldsche geschiedenissen...'' (Utrecht, 1839-48), vol. v, p. 8, noted in J. G. van Gelder, "Notes on the Royal Collection - IV: The 'Dutch Gift' of 1610 to Henry, Prince of 'Whalis'..." ''The Burlington Magazine'' 105 No. 729 (December 1963: 541-545) p. 542 note 7.〕
