ENCourland archaeologist Carl Boy, graduate of Tartu University and senior teacher at Jelgava Grammar School. He conducted his first excavation at Dobele castle in 1883, soon after graduation. More widely known in the historiography is his 1895 excavation at the Semigallian cemetery of Ciemalde. He was also involved in ascertaining the place of discovery of certain valuable artefact hoards (the Auri silver bar hoard, the 13th-century anvil hoard of from Pļaviņas station, the Kalviškiai hoard of bronze axes, etc.). Boy was an active member of the Courland Society for Literature and Art and the Courland Provincial Museum, and had a wide range of interests. He became involved in organising the 10th All-Russian Archaeological Congress, held in Riga in 1896, and took part in the survey expeditions organised by J. Döring and A.Bielenstein in Lithuania; his interests also included history, numismatics and other fields of historical study. [From the publication]
