Beatha cuir in eagar
Rugadh Macalister i mBaile Átha Cliath, mac le Alexander Macalister, ina Ollamh Zó-eolaíochta, ag Coláiste na hOllscoile Bhaile Átha Cliath. Sa bhliain 1883, ceartóidh a athair ina ollamh anatomy ag Cambridge University. Cuireadh oideachas ar Robert ag The Perse School, agus ansin ag Cambridge.
Bhí suim aige ar dtús i seandálaíocht na hÉireann, ach níos deireanaí, d'éirigh sé an-tógtha le seandálaíocht bíobalta. I dteannta le Frederick J. Bliss, thocail sé roinnt bailte i gceantar Shephelah sa Phalaistín ón mbliain 1898 go dtí 1900. Bunaithe ar obair Flinders Petrie sa réimse srathagrafaíochta, d'fhorbair siad croineolaíocht don cheantar ag baint leasa as saintréitheacht cheirmeach. Tar éis de Bhliss dul ar scor, d'éirigh Macalister ina stiúrthóir tochailte ar son an Palestine Exploration Fund (PEF) sa bhliain 1901.
Ón mbliain 1902 go dtí 1909 bhí sé freagrach as tochailtí ag Gezer, díreach taobh thiar de Iarúsailéim, ar cheann desna tochailtí eolaíocha is mó sa cheantar. Fuarthas ann sampla an-luath d'fhéilire Eabhraise, Féilire Gezer.
Sa bhliain 1909, ceapadh Macalister ina ollamh le Seandálaíocht Cheilteach ag Coláiste na hOllscoile, Baile Átha Cliath, áit a mhuin sé go dtí go ndeachaigh sé ar scoir sa bhliain 1943. Rinne sé obair ag Cnoc na Teamhrach agus bhí sé ina eagarthóir de chatalóg d'inscríbhinní oghaim ón mBreatain agus ón Éirinn. I dteannta sin, d'aistrigh sé seanscéalta ón mbunGhaeilge go Béarla, in úsáid go forleathan fós inniu. Toghadh é mar bhall d'Acadamh Ríoga na hÉireann sa bhliain 1910 agus bhí sé ina uachtarán ann ón mbliain 1926 go dtí 1931.[2] He was also president of the Royal Society of Antiquaries of Ireland from 1924 to 1928.
Adhlacadh é san Ascension Parish Burial Ground, Cambridge, i dteannta lena bhean chéile, Margaret A. M. Macalister.
