DESCRIPTION:The history of archaeology has frequently been divided into "g
 reat man" and "great woman" narratives.  This paper will discuss relations
  and relationships between men and women in the history of archaeology.  I
 t will concentrate particularly on George Horsfield and Agnes Conway\, who
  married (in middle age) in 1932 and together worked at two of Jordan's mo
 st famous sites\, the stunning Nabataean city of Petra and the remarkable 
 remains of Roman Jerash.  The Horsfields' archives offer a unique insight 
 into a comparatively modern marriage\, where gender roles\, class division
 s and ethnic identities were in constant flux.
