The British Institute in Eastern Africa (BIEA) Axum Archive is comprised of images and slides from the excavations directed by Neville Chittick in northern Ethiopia from1972-74. These excavations focused primarily on Axum' s residential and burial sites. Chittick's work in Axum was cut short by the Derg Revolution that overthrew Haile Selassie, Ethiopia's the last emperor, in 1974.
