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. It 
 will concentrate particularly on George Horsfield and Agnes Conway\, who m
 arried (in middle age) in 1932 and together worked at two of Jordan's most
  famous sites\, the stunning Nabataean city of Petra and the remarkable re
 mains of Roman Jerash. The Horsfields' archives offer a unique insight int
 o a comparatively modern marriage\, where gender roles\, class divisions a
 nd ethnic identities were in constant flux.
