Emma Buttles Andrews (1837–1922) was a wealthy patron of archaeologists. As the companion of Theodore M. Davis, she accompanied him on excavations, documenting excavation finds and mapping tombs. Andrews served as honorary treasurer for the Newport branch of the Egypt Exploration Fund (now the Egypt Exploration Society), in which Davis also served as a board member. The couple made a total of 17 trips along the Nile River aboard Davis's yacht the Bedawin, mainly to the Valley of the Kings in the hopes of uncovering new royal tombs.[1] Her diaries from those trips give researchers rare glimpses into her work with Davis in Egypt.[2]
