Scope and content
Thanks him for his letter concerning directorship of Qasr Ibrim excavations; pleased to discuss further. Had intended to visit him soon; working through his Soba wares, badly needs dating evidence, has difficulty recognising wares from Bill Adams's verbal descriptions in new book; wishes to compare his with whatever material Alexander has from Qasr Ibrim or other sites in Northern Nubia and with him and/or Pam Rose, with their familiarity with Bill Adams's methodology.
