from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page contains a list of important ancient scholars and archaeologists with details of their nationality and dates of life. It takes into account the following fields of activity: Ancient Egypt, Middle East and Central Asia, Arabia, North Africa, classical antiquity, "marginal peoples" such as Celts, Germanic peoples and Scythians as well as the continuation of classical antiquity in the Byzantine Empire , the Middle Ages and the entire prehistory and Early history (including paleoanthropology ).

Research travelers, amateurs, autodidacts, amateurs , patrons and other people who have made a contribution to research in the field - and not infrequently carried out basic work - are placed in front of the main sections and not classified under the actual scientists. Especially for the period of the 18th and 19th centuries, when the sciences developed, the boundaries are often fluid and cannot always be drawn precisely.
