Jacques Soustelle was born in Montpellier in 1912 and attained fame both as a scholar and a politician.

Following his retirement from active politics at the time of the first Algerian revolt, he returned to Paris to reassume a position he had held since 1937-Director of the most famous ethnological museum in the world, the Musée de l¿Homme. He died in 1990.
