Flinders Petrie war ein englischer Ägyptologe und ein Pionier systematischer Methodik in der Archäologie. Seine Ausgrabungen an bedeutenden ägyptischen Stätten wie Naukratis und Amarna sowie sein innovativer Ansatz zur Datierung von Schichten anhand von Keramik prägten das Fachgebiet maßgeblich. Er gilt als Pionier der methodischen Archäologie, der eine präzise Herangehensweise an Ausgrabungen und Fundanalysen einführte. Seine Entdeckungen und Methoden legten den Grundstein für die moderne Ägyptologie.
