Two letters, one from Max Mallowan to John Hansman, the second from David Stronach to John Hansman. Also a table plan for Sir Thomas Smith's Feast, 6 December 1969.

Letter from Max Mallowan to John Hansman to send a copy of Mallowan's "Elamite Problems" (not included). He writes that he is interested to hear about Hansman's plans for excavations and suggests he tries to persuade David Stronach to be involved. He also suggests that Hansman sends him the paper that he wants examining in late summer. The letter is complete but the piece of paper is partially missing.

These Papers are mainly concerned with excavations undertaken by David Stronach and John Hansman at Šahr-e Qumis in 1971 and 1976, and by David Stronach at Pasargadae in 1963. There is also the manuscript for Hansman's book, "Julfār, an Arabian Port", and more recent correspondence between Hansman and RAS Archivist, Nancy Charley.
