Edward Thomas (antiquarian) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Edward Thomas (antiquarian) Edward Thomas (1813–1886) was an English civil servant of the East India Company, known for his writings on Indian antiquities. ==Life== Born on 31 December 1813, the son of Honoratus Leigh Thomas, he was educated at the East India College at Haileybury. He went to India in 1832 as a writer in the Bengal service of the company. Poor health affected his career, and he took several absences in England on sick leave; and when Lord Dalhousie offered him in 1852 the post of foreign secretary to the government of India, he declined it. After acting for a short time as judge at Delhi, Thomas was appointed superintending judge of the Saugor and Nerbudda territory. He retired on a pension in 1857, and spent the rest of his life in scholarly pursuits, attending the meetings of learned societies and writing on Asian archæology. He died in Kensington on 10 February 1886.〔
