Arthur Surridge Hunt, FBA (1 March 1871 – 18 June 1934) was an English papyrologist.

Hunt was born in Romford, Essex, England. Over the course of many years, Hunt, along with Bernard Grenfell, recovered many papyri from excavation sites in Egypt, including the Oxyrhynchus Papyri.

He worked with Campbell Cowan Edgar on a translation of the Zenon Papyri from the original Greek and Demotic.

In 1913 he became Professor of Papyrology at Oxford succeeding to his lifelong friend and colleague Grenfell, whose professorship lapsed due to the latter’s breakdowns and depression.

In January 1918 he married Lucy Ellen, daughter of Surgeon-Major-General Sir A. F. Bradshaw, but during the next few months their only child died.^[1]
