IV PREFACE.
ness with which I have met on every side during my stay in Egypt; it is my
pleasing duty to acknowledge especially the consideration I received from Mr.
Maspero and others holding official positions in Egypt, and from Dr. R. S. Poole
and other officers of the Egypt Exploration Fund in England.
To the University of Cambridge I am indebted for the grant from the Worts
Fund which enabled me to undertake the excavations in Egypt. I have there-
fore to lay before the University the present memoir as a report of the work for
which it equipped me.
Last, but not least, I would acknowledge my obligations to my brother,
Professor Percy Gardner of Oxford. To him I owe alike my first impulse to the
study of archasology and the first suggestion of the particular piece of excavation
of which this volume is the record. I have also been indebted to him for advice
and assistance both during my work in Egypt and during my preparation of its
results for publication. I therefore feel that his name fittingly concludes the
list of acknowledgments with which I would preface this book.
