(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Philip Arthur Rahtz was a British archaeologist. Rahtz was born in Bristol. After leaving Bristol Grammar School, he became an accountant before serving with the Royal Air Force during the Second World War.

This friendship sparked a personal interest in archaeology and a professional career, which began with excavations at Chew Valley Lake in 1953.
