Percy Cox
Major-General Sir Percy Zachariah Cox , commonly known as Coccus or Kokkus (20 November 1864 – 20 February 1937) was a British Indian Army officer and colonial administrator in the Middle East. In the late 19th century and early 20th century, he was one of the major figures in the creation of Iraq. He was responsible for a lasting diplomatic friendship with the founder of Saudi Arabia. At the end of his career he helped save an independent Iran, separated from Russian incursion.
==Family and early life==
Cox was born in Harwood Hall, Herongate, Essex, the son of Arthur Zachariah and Julienne Emily Cox. He was educated initially at Harrow School where he developed interests in natural history, geography, and travel. In February 1884 the bookish but practical Cox, being his father's third son and therefore without significant inheritance, joined the Royal Military College, Sandhurst, and was commissioned as a Lieutenant into the Cameronians in February 1884, joining their 2nd Battalion in India. In November 1889, an outstanding planner, he transferred to the Bengal Staff Corps. On 14 November 1889 he married Louisa Belle Hamilton, later created a Dame, a daughter of the Irish-born Surgeon-General Sir John Butler Hamilton (1838-1902).
