Amice

Amice Calverley (1896–1959) was an English-born Canadian Egyptologist who was instrumental to the recording and publication of the decoration in the temple of King Sethos I at Abydos. During and after World War II she engaged in humanitarian work, including in Crete where she nursed at the front and filmed the conflict. She then used her filming as publicity to seek assistance for those disabled as a result of the conflict. She is also a music composer, with many works in chamber music and orchestral music, such as the String Quartet in F minor and the Variations on a Harmonic Theme.

Amice Valois was the illegitimate daughter of King Louis the VII of France and an unknown mistress. She was also the cousin of Isabella Valois.
