His work coincided with two important acquisitions by the Trustees of the aforementioned institution, namely the Codex Sinaiticus and the apocryphal Gospel Egerton 2 Papyrus (aka the Egerton Gospel). He made a name for himself with important contributions to palaeography, papyrology, and codicology, particularly-—but not only-—in relation to these two acquisitions. He was the grandson of noted philologist Walter William Skeat.
