Harold William Wellman 1909 - 1999
Wellman became interested in archaeology when resident in Gisborne while working as a petroleum geologist. He took an interest in human occupation in relation to coastal processes, human induced erosion and volcanic ash deposits. He encouraged Alan Pullar to further his work. On moving to an academic position he undertook a survey of the coasts of New Zealand which characteristically he pulled together into an overview of the recent history of New Zealand[1]
Wellman was influential in the early research of Bruce McFadgen, supervising his doctoral thesis, which followed up on the coastal sediments ideas.
His theodolite is in the collection of Te Papa - here.
Wellman has an entry in the Dictionary of New Zealand Biography - here.
Wellman's biography is Nathan 2005.
