E. Harold Jones

Jones continued working for Garstang until 1907, but quickly grew tired of the isolation of the sites of Abydos and Beni Hasan.

[4][1] Jones worked on their excavations in the Valley of the Kings, for which Davis and Andrews held the concession.

Jones worked mostly on their houseboat, the dahabeyah Beduin, painting larger objects coming out of tombs they cleared in the Valley.

[5] He wrote a number of letters home to his family, remarking on the friendships he made with the Davis and Andrews crew.

[5] Lord Carnarvon and Howard Carter organised his funeral[6] and he is buried in the Christian Cemetery in Luxor.

[11] The paintings were donated by his sister Annie, more formally known as Miss M. A. Sprake Jones, of Bryn Myrddin, Abergwili, who donated art and some of the egyptology items, (including items from the tomb of Queen Tiye) which he brought home to a number of Welsh museums.
