Summary/Abstract: I met my classmate Jaromír Málek – Jarda, as we called him – at the Faculty of Arts of Charles University in Prague at the start of the academic year 1960/1961. Both of us were just starting the first year of Egyptology and Prehistory, together with other classmates. The study disci pline of Egyptology had just been reopened after a long break, in relation to the newly founded Czechoslovak Institute of Egyptology. The institute was faced with many tasks, especially in connection with the salvage excavations and surveys organized by UNESCO that aimed to save the monuments in Nubia threatened by the High Dam in Aswan.
