Despite a short career of just over twenty years, Verney Wheeler published and excavated extensively while simultaneously developing new archaeological techniques, brought archaeology into the lives of the general public through her connections with the Pressand the encouragement of site tours, and was an inspiring teacher to an impressive roster of students.In this biograWomen archaeologistsWomen archaeologists.930.1092930.1092Carr Lydia C1860252MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910969523903321Tessa Verney Wheeler4464952UNINA
