Britský dôstojník a orientalista, ktorý je niekedy označovaný ako otec asýriológie. Svoju prácu zameral na štúdium klinového písma, najmä na rozlúštenie nápisov z Behistúnu v Iráne. Jeho bádanie v perzských a babylonských textoch otvorilo cestu k pochopeniu starovekých mezopotámskych civilizácií. Jeho lingvistické a historické objavy zásadne prispeli k rozvoju štúdia klinového písma.
