University?[edit]

Did she really study at Cambridge, as our page says? This note agrees, but I suspect it's based on Wikipedia. It might be possible to fit studies at Cambridge into the obituaries in the Guardian and Telegraph, but not easy. Andrew Dalby 13:30, 17 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OK, it doesn't say that any more. Andrew Dalby 20:49, 19 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Typo?[edit]

"Rule changed to a career in archaeology where she initially helped evacuate bomb sites in London after the Second World War". I suspect there is a typo here. As far as I can establish from her personal papers and recordings, she did not help 'evacuate', nor did she 'excavate', but in fact in 1947 she helped 'record' the sections through roman levels around London as part of the “Bomb site survey” project. If you really want to be picky, she was a full time professional pharmaceutical chemist living in Essex and working in London until c. 1957, when she moved to Sussex and pursued her interest in archaeology full time. By 1959 she is very active in various Chichester excavations (eg the 'Chichester Palace Bastion' dig, and lifting 'the roman mosaic pavement discovered in East Street'.)
