Kathleen Kenyon

Si **Dame Kathleen Mary Kenyon**, DBE (5 Enero 1906&nbsp;– 24 Agosto 1978) ang nangungunang arkeologo ng kulturang Neolitiko sa Mabungang Gasuklay. Siya ay kilala sa kanyang mga paghuhukay sa Jericho at Bangalow noong 1952-1958.

## Biograpiya
Si Kathleen Kenyon ang pinakamatandang anak na babae ni Sir Frederic Kenyon na isang skolar ng Bibliya at kalaunang direktor ng British Museum. Siya ay nag-aral sa St Paul's Girls' School, nagbasa ng kasaysayan sa Somerville College, Oxford, Inglatera at naging unang pangulong babae ng Oxford University Archaeological Society. Si Kenyon ay hindi kailanman ikinasal.Ang unang pangyayari ang pagpipino ng mga paraang stratigrapiko na pinasimulan ng pahuhukay ni Kenyon sa Jericho. Ang mahigpit na paghihiwalay ng mga patong ng lupa o mga sedimentong arkeolohikal ay pumayag rin sa mahigpit na paghihiwalay ng mga pagtitipon na seramiko.

Natukoy ni Herr ang makapangyarihang hindi direktang impluwensiya ni Kenyon sa ikalawang pangyayari na nagtagayuod ng pagsulong sa loob ng paraang seramiko na:

"...the importation of Kenyon's digging techniques by Larry Toombs and Joe Callaway to Ernest Wright's project at Balata. Here, they combined Wright's interest in ceramic typology in the best Albright tradition with Kenyon's methods of excavation, which allowed the isolation of clear, stratigraphically determined pottery assemblages".

## Mga gantimpala at komemorasyon
Ang British School of Archaeology sa Jerusalem, na isinama sa Council for British Research in the Levant (CBRL) noong 1998, ay opisyal na muling pinangalanan na Kenyon Institute noong 10 Hulyo 2003 bilang pagpaparangal kay Kathleen Kenyon. Sa kanyang pagreretiro mula sa Oxford noong 1973, siya ay hinirang na DBE.
