Extract

The eleventh season of the Joint Expedition of the British Museum and of the Museum of the University of Pennsylvania started on 18th December 1932, and closed down on 9th March 1933; it was therefore a shorter season than usual, and its programme was also a modest one, the object being rather to finish certain tasks that had already been begun than to embark on new sites. About 150 men were employed.
