Maurice Pillet (born October 31, 1881) was a French archeologist and Egyptologist.

Upon his death in 1964, Maurice Pillet left a considerable amount of work, plans, photographs, and an important scientific library. Unable to keep all these precious documents and wishing to see them used for new studies and research, his children entrusted, on the advice of Professor Jean Leclant, all of these documents to the Collège de France.
