I have a profound doubt as to whether the adventure is, after all, worth the candle. Not because of the danger - I don't mind that; but I am beginning to wonder what profit I shall get out of it all … There are two ways of profitable travel in Arabia. One is the Arabia Deserta way, to live with the people, and to live like them for months and years … It's clear I can't take that way; the fact of my being a woman bars me from it. And the other is to ride swiftly through the country with your compass in hand, for the map's sake and for nothing else, I might be able to do that over a limited space of time, but I am not sure. Anyway, it's not what I'm doing now … I almost wish that something would happen - something exciting, a raid, or a battle! Yet that's not my job either. What do ineffective archaeologists want with battles! They would only serve to pass the time, and leave as little profit as before … it's a bore being a woman when you're in Arabia.

Gertrude Bell, letter written in 1914, Letters of Gertrude Bell (1929)

Born 155 years ago today on 14 July 1868, Gertrude Bell defied societal norms and shattered barriers as an English writer, traveler, political officer, administrator, and archaeologist. She was also the greatest woman mountaineer of her age. She was also the first woman to earn first class honours in modern history at Oxford.
