Submission declined on 15 November 2023 by WikiDan61 (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. |

Cully Alton Cobb (born February 25, 1884, Giles County, Tennessee - 1975)[1] was an American philanthropist.
Life edit
In 1908 he received his degree from Mississippi State University, though it was referred to as Mississippi A & M College at that time.[2] He married his second wife, Lois P. Dowdle, in 1934. Together, the couple traveled extensively in the Near East and Europe and were notable philanthropists.[3] The couple's interest in the Near East coupled with their philanthropic nature and Cobb's loyalty to Mississippi State led them to provide the funds for the Cobb Institute of Archaeology in June 1971.
