The Managing Committee of the British School at Rome was established in 1900 following on from the creation, in 1899, of a Provisional Committee dependent upon the Committee of the British School at Athens. The scope of the Provisional Committee was to prepare the ground for the foundation of the future British School at Rome. Members of the Provisional Committee were: Percy Gardner (Professor of Classical Archaeology, Oxford), William Loring (Honorary Secretary of the British School at Athens), George Augustin MacMillan (Honorary Secretary of the Hellenic Society), Henry F. Pelham (Camden Professor of Ancient History, Oxford), James Smith Reid (Professor of Ancient History, Cambridge).
