Service des Antiquités, Bibliothèque Archéologique et Historique, Tome: XXXIV. Paul Deschamps was a French historian and was appointed director of the Trocadero Museum in 1927. He directed three study campaigns on medieval archaeology in Syria then under British mandate, in 1927, 1929 then in 1936. He obtained the purchase of Crac des Chevaliers by the French government in 1933 and published several works on fortresses of the Levant. This work is a study on the military architecture of the crusading states. Camille Enlart, Deschamps predecessor at Trocadero, started a study on the monuments of crusaders in Syria and Palestine, but did not live to complete his work, publishing in 1925-1928 Les Monuments des Croises dans le Royaume de Jerusalem.

The European interest in the archaeology of Palestine and specifically in Jerusalem continued during the British Mandate. #34335.…
