Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales The Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales (RCAHMW; (ウェールズ語:Comisiwn Brenhinol Henebion Cymru)) is a Welsh Government sponsored body concerned with the archaeological, architectural and historic environment of Wales, based in Aberystwyth. It was established in August 1908, shortly after the equivalent Royal Commission for Scotland (February 1908), and before that for England (October 1908). ==Activities== The RCAHMW maintains and curates the National Monuments Record of Wales (NMRW) holding the national collection of information about the archaeological, architectural and historical heritage of Wales and provides a public information service, drawing on both archival and published sources and benefiting from specialist advice from RCAHMW staff. The National Monuments Record includes drawings, photographs, maps, plans and descriptions for a total of over 80,000 sites, buildings and maritime remains. With 1.5 million photographs, it is the largest photographic archive in Wales. Coflein is the online database for the National Monuments Record of Wales (NMRW). The name is derived from the Welsh ''cof'' (memory) and ''lein'' (line). Coflein contains details of many thousands of archaeological sites, monuments, buildings and maritime sites in Wales, together with an index to the drawings, manuscripts and photographs held in the NMRW archive collections. The Commission has published over a hundred books developing and promoting understanding of aspects of the historic environment, including its centenary volume in 2008, ''Hidden Histories: Discovering the Heritage of Wales'', which includes a brief account of the organisation's development and discussions of the history of Wales seen in the light of its first century of discoveries.
