His significant discoveries include the King List at Abydos, which played a crucial role in deciphering hieroglyphs, and a fallen obelisk at Philae, which he successfully transported to England. Additionally, he was the first European to document the "lost" city of Petra in modern-day Jordan through sketches and site plans, showcasing his impact on archaeology and historical understanding.
