Helene Kantor Receives Percia Schimmel Award

To the Editor:

I have just received your beautiful—more than ever if at all possible—BAR of November/December 1984. I appreciate your noting the fact that I received the Percia Schimmel Israel Museum Archaeology Prize.

This prestigious prize was given this year, as in previous years, to two archaeologists, and I am proud to have shared the prize with the distinguished archaeologist of the Oriental Institute in Chicago, Professor Helene J. Kantor.
