Sir Ernest Alfred Thompson Wallis Budge was a British archaeologist and curator whose contributions to the holdings of the British Museum were among the most significant of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. As described in Budge's autobiography he first laid eyes on the Papyrus of Ani in 1888 and immediately made a deal for its purchase, however not long after the deal was made Egyptian police arrested the antiquities dealer selling the looted papyrus and sealed his home; Budge hired local workers to tunnel into the sealed home and retrieve the papyrus along with other purchased items while he distracted the guards with food. The papyrus along with the rest of Budge's items was subsequently smuggled out of Egypt and delivered to the British Museum, where it remains today.
