Sad News: Harry James

Thanks very much to Bob Partridge for letting me know that Harry James has passed away. Harry James was a Vice-President and former Chairman of the Egypt Exploration Society, and former Keeper of Ancient Egypt at the British Museum. He died last Wednesday after being in hospital for a few weeks.

So sorry to hear this sad news. Dr James was a wonderful and important Egyptologist, whose opinions and comments I and many others valued highly.
No doubt he will be sorely missed, and deeply esteemed in memory.
