Abstract
ON September 18, 1937, Dr. S. A. Huzayyin gave a preliminary account in NATURE of the results of the Egyptian University Scientific Expedition to the Yemen and Hadhramaut. It may be advantageous, therefore, also to record in brief the geological and archaeological results of the Lord Wakefield expedition, which worked in the western part of the Hadhramaut last winter. The party consisted of Miss Freya Stark, whose knowledge of the country and language made scientific work by her two companions possible in a land still unaccustomed to, and suspicious of, Europeans ; Miss E. W. Gardner ; and myself.
