Gustav Seyffarth (13 July 1796 – 17 November 1885) was a German-American Egyptologist, born in Uebigau, in the Electorate of Saxony. He studied theology and philology at the University of Leipzig, obtaining his doctorate in 1823 with the thesis "De sonis literarum graecarum tum genuis tum adoptivis". He became a professor of philosophy at Leipzig in 1825 and a professor of archæology in 1830 (a position he held until 1855). From 1826 to 1829 he visited the principal museums of Germany, France, England, and the Netherlands and collected copies of Egyptian inscriptions and Coptic manuscripts. In 1840, on his initiative, a sarcophagus was purchased that was to become the centerpiece of the future Ägyptisches Museum der Universität Leipzig.
