Lilian Hamilton "Anne" Jeffery FBA (5 January 1915 – 29 September 1986) was a British archaeologist, classical philologist and epigraphist best remembered for her 1961 work The Local Scripts of Archaic Greece.

Building on the work of Adolf Kirchhoff and Antony E. Raubitschek, Jeffery surveyed the development of the Greek alphabet from its adoption down to the fifth century BC and in so doing established the chronology of archaic inscriptions.

[3] She served in the WAAF during World War II; part of her duties included intelligence interpretation of aerial photographs.

She also made major contributions to the study of Attic grave monuments[6] and the epigraphical edition project Inscriptiones Graecae i3.
