Although he was the driving force behind the establishment of the Institute, Mortimer Wheeler, in his autobiographical book Still Digging of 1954, never claims to have been it's director. He was at that time the keeper of the London Museum, and says that "from the beginning for the first decade the administration rested on Kathleen Kenyon's shoulders".
