Hans Schrader (born February 15, 1869 in Stolp , † November 5, 1948 in Berlin ) was a German classical archaeologist .

The son of a lawyer studied classical studies and history in Marburg and Berlin from 1888 . He was particularly influenced by Reinhard Kekulé von Stradonitz and Hermann Diels . With the help of the travel grant of the German Archaeological Institute, he explored large parts of Greece and Asia Minor together with Theodor Wiegand and took part in the excavation in Priene from 1896 . Schrader took over the sanctuaries and public buildings such as the agora , prytaneion , stadium and high schools for the publication . In 1899 he became assistant director of the Berlin museums, in 1901 he became second secretary (director) of the Athens department of the German Archaeological Institute , which appointed him a full member on Winckelmann's Day in 1901. Professorships in Innsbruck (1905–1908) and Graz (1908–1910) followed. From 1910 he was a professor at the University of Vienna and director of the antique collections. In 1914 he moved to the University of Frankfurt am Main , where he set up a new institute. For health reasons he withdrew from his teaching post in Frankfurt as early as 1931.

His work on the Telephos Frieze and the sacrificial site of the Great Altar in Pergamon , published in 1899, became fundamental. Schrader's decades of work with archaic sculptures from the Persian rubble of the Acropolis of Athens culminated in the work The archaic marble sculptures of the Acropolis in 1939 .
