Gilbert Horner

Professor Gilbert Horner was a noted archaeologist who planned to open Devil's Hump in the 1970s, despite Olive Hawthorne's persistent warnings. He believed that he would discover the tomb of a Bronze Age warrior chieftain from 800 BC. In fact, the barrow contained Azal and his spacecraft, and when it was opened, he was frozen to death.
