"Friedrich Wilhelm von Bissing (22 April 1873, Potsdam – 12 January 1956, Oberaudorf am Inn), also Friedrich Wilhelm, graf von Bissingen und Nippenburg, Friedrich Wilhelm Freiherr von Bissing, or Baron von Bissingen, was a German Egyptologist. He was the son of Prussian general Moritz Ferdinand von Bissing (1844–1917).
He studied classical philology, archaeology, Egyptology and art history in Bonn and Berlin, obtaining his doctorate in 1896 with the thesis "De tabula quam dicunt statistica Tuthmosis III commentatio(Commentary on the record of the statistics of Tuthmosis III)". After graduation, he spent considerable time in Egypt, performing museum and excavatory work. He was instrumental towards the development of the "General catalog" of the Cairo Museum (Catalogue général des antiquités Egyptiennes du Musée du Caire), and with Ludwig Borchardt, conducted an archaeological excavation of the Sun Temple of Nyuserre Ini at Abu Gurab." - (en.wikipedia.org 20.12.2023)
