Material  fro the Egypt Exploration Society's work at Amarna was original presented to Huguenot University College in 1948 by Miss Emily Armistead who had many colleagues at this all-female teacher training school including a Miss Grace Robson. The School closed in 1950 and a Grace Robson passed the material to Wellington. It includes glass rods, faience moulds, pendants and amulets from Amarna, together with a single Predynastic pot (provenance uncertain), three rosettes from Tell el-Yahudiyeh, 36 shabtis, small bronze Osiris figurines, fragments of papyri and wooden combs.
