Naguib Kanawati MA, PhD, is an Egyptian-born Egyptologist and Professor in Egyptology at Macquarie University in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

A native and graduate of Alexandria, he later emigrated to Sydney, Australia, where he obtained a second Master's degree and his Doctorate, both in Egyptology.

Kanawati has directed numerous excavations and epigraphic expeditions, at sites including the entire mountain of El-Hawawish (in excess of 800 Old Kingdom and First Intermediate Period rock-cut tombs), Quseir El Amarna, El Hagarsa (near Sohag), Deir El Gebrawi, Giza, as well as the Unis and Teti pyramid cemeteries at Saqqara.

Kanawati is Macquarie University's first Professor in Egyptology and holds a Personal Chair in that subject. He was instrumental in the formation of the Rundle Foundation for Egyptian Archaeology in the late 1970s and was the founder, in 1989, of the Australian Centre for Egyptology.

Kanawati's research interests focus on the Old Kingdom period of Egypt, its burial customs, art history, and socio-political development.
