Sir Charles Norton Edgcumbe Eliot Template:Postnominals (8 January 1862 – 16 March 1931) was a British diplomat, colonial administrator and botanist. He served as Commissioner of British East Africa in 1900–1904. He was British ambassador to Japan in 1919–1925.<ref>Nussbaum, "Eliot, Charles Norton Edgcumbe," Template:Google books; Ian Nish. (2004). British Envoys in Japan 1859–1972, pp. 114–122.</ref>
He was also known as a malacologist and marine biologist.<ref>pp. 14–15 of The History of Marine Science in Hong Kong (1841–1977) by Kerrie L. MacPherson, pp. 7–27 in Morton, Brian, ed. Perspectives on Marine Environmental Change in Hong Kong and Southern China, 1977-2001: Proceedings of an International Workshop Reunion Conference, Hong Kong, 21–26 October 2001. Hong Kong University Press, 2003.</ref> He described a number of sea slug species, including Chelidonura varians.
Career
Eliot was born in the village of Sibford Gower near Banbury, Oxfordshire, England and educated at Cheltenham College and Balliol College, Oxford,<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> where he took a double first in classical moderations and Greats, as well as winning the Craven, Ireland and Hertford scholarships. Remarkably, he also won the Boden Sanskrit Scholarship and the Houghton Syriac prize. He was a noteworthy linguist, with a full knowledge of 16 languages and conversant in 20 more.<ref>Winckworth, Ronald. (1931). "Obituary. Sir Charles Eliot, 1862–1931," Proceedings of the Malacological Society of London, Vol. 19, No. 5, pp. 224–226.</ref>
Eliot served in diplomatic posts in Russia (1885), Morocco (1892), Turkey (1893), and Washington, D.C. (1899). He also served as British Commissioner in Samoa. He was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath (CB) in the 1898 Birthday Honours and was knighted as a Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George (KCMG) in the New Year honours list 1 January 1900.<ref>Template:London Gazette</ref><ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>
British East Africa
In 1900, he was appointed commissioner of British East Africa, and on 1 January 1902 he was appointed Commissioner, Commander-in-Chief and Consul-General for the East Africa Protectorate, including the mainland dominions of the Sultan of Zanzibar, and also as British Agent and Consul-General for the island dominions of the Sultan.<ref>Template:London Gazette</ref> In December 1902 he hosted the British colonial secretary (Joseph Chamberlain) during his tour of the African colonies.<ref>Template:Cite newspaper The Times</ref>
In April 1902, the first application for land in British East Africa was made by the East Africa Syndicate – a company in which financiers belonging to the British South Africa Company were interested – which sought a grant of Template:Convert sq. m., and this was followed by other applications for considerable areas, a scheme being also propounded for a large Jewish settlement (which was rejected by the world Jewish community). During 1903 the arrival of hundreds of prospective settlers, chiefly from South Africa, led to the decision to entertain no more applications for large areas of land, especially as questions were raised concerning the preservation for the Maasai of their rights of pasturage. In the 24 October 1903 edition of the Natal Witness, Eliot wrote: "There can be no doubt that the Maasai and many other tribes must go under. It is a prospect that I view with equanimity...I have no desire to protect Maasaidom...the sooner it disappears and it is unknown, except in books of anthropology, the better..."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In April 1903, Major Frederick Russell Burnham, the famous American scout and then a Director of the East African Syndicate, sent an expedition consisting of John Weston Brooke, John Charles Blick, Mr. Bittlebank, and Mr. Brown, to assess the mineral wealth of the region. The party, known as the "Four B.'s", travelled from Nairobi via Mount Elgon northwards to the western shores of Lake Rudolph, experiencing plenty of privations from want of water, and of the danger from encounters with the Maasai.<ref>Fergusson, W.N. (1911). Adventure, Sport and Travel on the Tibetan Steppes, p. preface. Charles Scribner's Sons, New York</ref>
In the carrying out of this policy of colonisation a dispute arose between Eliot and Lord Lansdowne, the British Foreign Secretary. Lansdowne, believing himself bound by pledges given to the East Africa Syndicate, decided that they should be granted the lease of the Template:Convert they had applied for; but after consulting officials of the protectorate then in London, he refused Eliot permission to conclude leases for Template:Convert each to two applicants from South Africa. Eliot thereupon resigned his post, and in a public telegram to the prime minister, dated Mombasa, 21 June 1904, gave as his reason:- "Lord Lansdowne ordered me to refuse grants of land to certain private persons while giving a monopoly of land on unduly advantageous terms to the East Africa Syndicate. I have refused to execute these instructions, which I consider unjust and impolitic." On the day Sir Charles sent this telegram, Sir Donald William Stewart, the chief commissioner of Ashanti (Ghana), was appointed his successor.
University administration
In 1905 Eliot was the first Vice-Chancellor of the newly created University of Sheffield. On 17 March 1912<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> he accepted the appointment to become the first Vice-Chancellor of the University of Hong Kong; he served there until he was recalled to the diplomatic service becoming high commissioner and consul-general in Siberia<ref name=ODNB>Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, accessed 6 August 2011</ref> in August 1918.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
Japan
He was the British ambassador to Japan in 1920–1926: though the position was not renewed, he stayed in Japan, studying the practice of Buddhism there.<ref name=ODNB/> He regretted the 1921 decision to end the Anglo-Japanese alliance in 1923.<ref name=ODNB/>
Taken ill with influenza, he decided to return to England but died on the journey on 16 March 1931 and was buried at sea in the Straits of Malacca.<ref name=ODNB/> He never married.<ref name=ODNB/>
