Transcription
Early life and education
Curiel was born into a prosperous Jewish family in Cairo, the son of Daniel Curiel, a wealthy banker, and brother of Henri Curiel. In 1933, Curiel left Cairo to study law at the University of Paris (or Sorbonne), but switched to Indology and Iranian studies.[2]
In 1939 he cofounded a weekly, Don Quichotte, together with his brother Henri Curiel and Georges Henein.[3]
Archaeology and Indology
During the Second World War, Curiel served in Beirut, where he carried out archaeological studies for the French army. In Beirut, he became friends with Daniel Schlumberger and Henri Seyrig.[1] Curiel was the French archaeological representative in Afghanistan in 1945 and served as Director of Antiques at the National Museum of Pakistan, 1954–1958.[4] He later acted as curator of the Oriental coins department at the French National Library.[5][6]
