An image of one of the objects from the Dundee McManus Museum collection that was donated by Duncan. Shown is the object label with Duncan’s name and the year it was labelled and possibly accessioned into the museum – 1943. The ‘1’ seen on the label could represent the object standing in his collection, being object ‘1’. Image courtesy of Alice Stevenson
I am a postgraduate student at University College London (UCL) doing my masters in Museum Studies. I’m currently working on the Artefacts of Excavation Project (AoE) in an effort to find out more about some very interesting people in the world of Egyptology.

Hi Petrie Blog! I've just finished up a year of volunteering in the Petrie while studying for an MA in Egyptian Archaeology at UCL. Volunteering has been a great way to balance out my time in the classroom and the library with some time looking at and handling real ancient artifacts.

Over a two-week internship, I attempted to trace the scale of finds distribution from British excavations to Australia and New Zealand between 1880 and 1980 within the context of the larger global distribution network.
Women in Victorian and Edwardian times made a considerable contribution to British Egyptology. The accolades and academic positions, however, were dominated by men.
