| Notes |
Piet Christiaan Leonardus de Jong (1887 – 1967) was born in Leeds and educated as an architect at the Leeds Institute of Science, Art, and Literature. In 1920, de Jong joined the BSA's Mycenae excavations as an architect and illustrator. This was the beginning of a long career of recording and reconstructing many famous sites in the Mediterranean, including the Knossos palace under Sir Arthur Evans. De Jong had a long relationship with the BSA, acting as the school's official architect for a period of time. |
