Edward Benjamin Howard Cunnington (1861–1950), was a British archaeologist most famous for his work on prehistoric sites and features in Wiltshire, England.
He was the great-grandson of the famous antiquarian William Cunnington, and the fourth generation of his family to work recording and preserving Wiltshire's past.
The son of Henry Cunnington, a wine merchant, and his wife, Benjamin worked as a journalist before joining his father's business.
The couple devoted their lives to archaeology in Wiltshire, carrying out formal excavations at highly significant sites.
These included the first known Neolithic causewayed enclosure at Knap Hill, the Iron Age village at All Cannings Cross, West Kennet Long Barrow, Woodhenge, (which they named) and The Sanctuary.
