Lloyd Cabot Briggs was an anthropologist who specialized in the prehistory of northwest Africa, but was also interested in the ethnology of Saharan peoples, especially the Tuareg. LLoyd Cabot Briggs was the son of Lloyd Vernon Briggs and Mary Tilotson Cabot Briggs. His father was a prominent Boston psychiatrist. A graduate of Harvard (B.A. 1931, M.A. 1935, Ph.D. 1952), Briggs was a Research Fellow in North African Anthropology at the Peabody Museum from 1952 until his death in 1975. He was also affiliated with the Museum through the American School for Prehistoric Research, of which he was an active member from the late 1940s until his death. From 1967 on, Briggs served as the chairman of the anthropology department at Franklin Pierce College in New Hampshire, and from 1970 he was a technical consultant to the Laboratory of Applied Anthropology, University of Paris. Briggs left his ethnographic collection, working library, and professional papers to the Peabody Museum. Briggs' publications include: Living Races of the Sahara Desert (1958), Tribes of the Sahara (1960), Archaeologicial Investigations near Tipasa, Algeria (1963), and No More for Ever (1964), with N.
