Jadwiga Lipińska

Jadwiga Lipińska née Freyer (29 November 1932 – 4 October 2009) was a Polish Egyptologist.

Biography Lipińska was the daughter of Edward Freyer and Zofia Kodis, an artist. Following her studies, she went on to work at the National Museum, Warsaw from 1958. She began as an assistant in the Gallery of Ancient Art and by 1991, she became curator of the Gallery of Ancient Art, a position she held until she retired in 2002. Her main excavation focus from 1961 to 1996 was the nearby Temple of Thutmose III project at Deir el-Bahari, and from 1978 to 1996, she directed the site. This expedition at the Temple of Hatshepsut uncovered the previously unknown Temple of Thutmose III in 1962, which she wrote her habilitation thesis on in 1977. She also gave multiple lectures internationally. She was also an active member of the International Council of Museums (ICOM), particularly in the CIPEG (The International Committee of ICOM for Egyptology). below are a selection of her publications:
