Sir Daniel Wilson (5 January, 1816 - 6 August, 1892) was a British-born Canadian archaeologist, ethnologist and author.
Wilson was born and educated in Edinburgh, and after acting as secretary of the Edinburgh Society of Antiquaries, went to Toronto as Professor of History and English Literature. He was the author of Memorials of Edinburgh in the Olden Time, The Archeology and Pre-historic Annals of Scotland (1851), Civilisation in the Old and the New World, a study on Thomas Chatterton, and Caliban, the Missing Link, etc.
