French archaeologist Jean-Francois Jarrige, who headed the Musee Guimet in Paris for 22 years, has died aged 74 following a long illness, the prestigious museum of Asian arts said Saturday. Born in the south-western pilgrimage city of Lourdes on August 5, 1940, Jarrige had a doctorate in oriental archaeology and specialised in the South Asian region. But his name was most closely associated with the Musee Guimet, which he directed from 1986 to 2008.
