Cambridge, Part 1, and the BSA

Most Cambridge students (in the period 1886-1914) were admitted to the BSA after Part 2 of the Classical Tripos. Only three students were admitted immediately after Part 1.
  • Arthur George Bather (1868-1928), King's College; Part 1, 1st, 1889; BSA, 1889/90; Part 2, 1st, 1891.
  • Robert Carr Bosanquet (1871-1935), Trinity College; Part 1, 1st, 1892; BSA, 1892/93; Part 2, 1st, 1894.
  • (Sir) John Hubert Marshall (1876-1958), King's College; Part 1, 1st, 1898; BSA, 1898/99; Part 2, 1st, 1900.
Bosanquet was a future director of the BSA (1900-06), and Marshall became director-general of archaeology in India (1902-28). Bather was an assistant master at Winchester (1894-1928).
