• Comment: There are not yet enough secondary sources to demonstrate the notability of the lectureship. If they are unavailable, perhaps add the lectureship as a "Legacy" section to the Evans Pritchard's article. Additionally, Dr Christina Riggs published her lectures as a book: "Unwrapping Ancient Egypt: The Shroud, the Secret and the Sacred." Ewhite31 (talk) 23:00, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

• Comment: Why this is notable? Do you have enough secondary source for this? -Lemonaka 02:27, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

• Comment: In Wikipedia, we use "straight quotes" and straight apostrophes ('). —Anomalocaris (talk) 19:20, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

The Evans-Pritchard Lectureship at All Souls College, Oxford, was established in 1998^[1] in memory of Sir Edward Evans-Pritchard, Professor of Social Anthropology and Fellow of All Souls (1946-70).

The disciplines and areas covered by the annual Lecturers are those that interested Evans-Pritchard: social anthropology, classical studies, modern history, Asian and Middle Eastern studies and in Africa, the Middle East, the Mediterranean.

The rubric for the lectures is that they "should provide an empirical analysis of social relations, and should be based on fieldwork or on indigenous primary materials" (see ref above).

Many of the lecturers have published the contents as academic monographs and are now holders of posts in various universities round the world.
