Frederick W. Green (Egyptologist)

Frederick William Green (March 21, 1869 – 1949) was an English Egyptologist, who worked at a number of sites throughout Egypt.

[1] He worked at Hierakonpolis (ancient Nekhen), where amongst other discoveries his team found the Narmer Palette in 1898.

He studied at Jesus College in Cambridge,[2] continuing to study Archaeology and Egyptology under Kurt Sethe in Göttingen and Strasbourg and then excavated sites in and around Egypt with Flinders Petrie and Somers Clarke.

Nearing the end of his career Green led the Mond excavation of the Bucheum at Armant from 1929 to 1930.

In 2009 a collection of 149 paintings, together with childhood drawings and early sketchbooks have surfaced for sale on an online auction site, fully documented before their dispersal.
