This item appears to be a reprint of a work published in the same year (1806) by Seitz, appearing here in an unidentified journal as the last line on the first page reads, 'T. VI. Dêcembre 1806.' The independent Seitz work is Essai sur la fonte des Anciens et celle des chevaux de Chio (Paris: Delance, 1806). The text appears to be the same throughout except for the slightly altered title.
