  Sir John Gardner Wilkinson
Wilkinson was the son of John Wilkinson, a clergyman from Hardendale in Westmorland, and Mary Anne Wilkinson, born to them on October 5th, 1797 at Little Missenden, Buckingshamshire.
Gell encouraged Wilkinson to leave the army and study Egyptology under his guidance, and in October of 1821, Wilkinson made his first visit to Egypt, at the age of 24, by way of Alexandria, which was the normal entry point in those days.
Wilkinson's Egyptological work contributed to the foundation of that discipline in Britain, but his research and publications ranged beyond Egypt into architecture, aesthetics, international relations and the classics, as well as travel and the study of ancient Britain.
