Abstract
IN the passing of Sir Robert Mond, Egyptology has lost one of its most generous supporters, as well as a most devoted student. Ever ready to help in financing explorations in the field, he himself took the keenest pleasure in the actual work of excavating and enjoyed nothing better than being at the bottom of a tomb-shaft, sifting the sand with his own hands in the hope of finding some hidden treasure.
