A leading Egyptologist, Jean Leclant was the permanent secretary of the French Academy of Inscriptions and Belles-Lettres (AIBL) and a corresponding member of many distinguished academies and learned societies abroad. At the helm of the AIBL, a noted founding member of the European Consortium for Asian Field Study (ECAF) coordinated by the EFEO, Jean Leclant was an unfailing supporter and valued mentor to our institution. As one of the French Schools Overseas founded by and affiliated with the Academy of Inscriptions and Belles-Lettres, the EFEO pays tribute and expresses its gratitude to an eminent scholar and a friend of long standing who will be greatly missed.
