Ancient Accounting, A. R. (Alan Ralph) Millard
Accounting Historians Notebook
In an article entitled, "Does the Bible Exaggerate King Solomon's Golden Wealth?," Alan R. Millard [Biblical Archaeology Review, May/June 1989, pp 20-34] provides interesting references to the accounting for wealth accumulated by the rulers of Biblical times. In one case, Millard cites a gift from Tuthmosis III to the temple of Amun at Karnak. The walls of the temple catalogue the detailed inventory of items, large and small, and stands as an accounting record of the event.

In Search Of Ancient Auditors, Harold C. Smolinski, Delbert William Chumley, Donald E. Bennett
Accounting Historians Notebook
Auditing is one of the most ancient of all professions. Early civilizations apparently learned to audit almost as soon as they learned to write. Many of the oldest examples of writing are records of possessions, such as livestock, grain, or wine. There is evidence that at least some of these first accounting records were audited. We will examine evidence of auditing in the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Our examination will be limited to the lands located around the Mediterranean Sea for it is here that the origin of auditing in Western world can be found. We …

Hopedale Community And Cocoa, Garry Favel
Accounting Historians Notebook
There have been numerous publications providing historical support for Professor Ray Chambers' proposed means of asset valuation : CoCoA (Continuously Contemporary Accounting). Wells and Dean [1982] compiled an anthology of writings from the Twentieth Century and some earlier works, which advocate the adoption of selling price valuations. Chambers and Wolnizer {1991} provide evidence that during the early Nineteenth Century in the United Kingdom, selling prices were considered paramount to providing a "true and correct view" of financial affairs. In addition, several publications have provided a historical view of accounting methods utilized by religious communes. Faircloth's article about the importance of …

Comer's Initiatory Counting-Room, Elliott L. Slocum
Accounting Historians Notebook
George N. Comer was a practitioner and educator in Nineteenth Century Boston. He established a proprietary school, Comer's Initiatory Counting-Room, in 1840 in Boston and taught commercial writing, arithmetic and bookkeeping. He also taught navigation at the same address, 139 Washington, in what was advertised as the Comer's Nautical Institute. Comer's enterprise, which later was named Comer's Commercial College and located at: 323 Washington Street, is indicative of the origins of accounting education in the United States. The proprietary schools provided the primary means of accounting education to well into the Twentieth Century.

Systems: Everybody Has At Least One, Alfred Robert Roberts
Accounting Historians Notebook
While possibly on a larger scale, many of the systems in use today are addressing the same problems that have been around for one-hundred years or more. For example, the precursor of the bar code system for pricing retail merchandise might have been the "secret code" used by merchants around the turn of the century. J. L. Nichols, A. M., The Business Guide; or Safe Methods of Business, (Naperville, Ill., J. L. Nichols & Co., 1899), on page 250, demonstrates the following procedure of "How Merchants Mark Goods."
