Eugène Grébaut

Eugène Grébaut (1846 – 8 January 1915) was a French Egyptologist.[1]

In 1883 he succeeded Eugène Lefébure as director of the Institut Français d'Archéologie Orientale in Cairo. Three years later, he succeeded Gaston Maspero as director of the Département des antiquités égyptiennes, a position he maintained up until 1892. Afterwards, he worked as a lecturer of ancient history at the Sorbonne in Paris.[2]

He was the author of "Hymne à Ammon-Ra des papyrus égyptiens du Musée de Boulaq" (1874).[3]
