Adolphe Reinach


Adolphe Joseph Reinach (12 January 1887 – 30 August 1914) was a French archaeologist and Egyptologist who participated in excavations in Greece and Egypt and published works on the Gauls.

Working in Egypt for the Société française des fouilles archéologiques with Raymond Weill in 1910-1911, he discovered the Coptos Decrees in the temple of Min at Coptos.

Adolphe Reinach was the son of the archaeologist Joseph Reinach. He married Marguerite Dreyfus, daughter of Mathieu Dreyfus, and had a son, Jean-Pierre Reinach (1915–1942), born after his father's death. Adolphe Reinach, a lieutenant of Cuirassiers in the French Army, was killed in Fossé in the Ardennes in the first few months of the First World War.
