[Sca-cooks] Is anyone familiar with this source?

[Terry Decker]

This is a classic text on the evolution of milling technology.  You should 
find the information on rotary mills of particular interest as this was the 
standard milling technology from Late Antiquity until the developement of 
roller mills in the 19th Century.  For those interested, Ox-Bow Books has an 
edition for around $20.

You might also want to check out Watts, Martin, The Archeology of Mills and 
Milling, also available from Ox-Bow.
