William Snyder Webb (19 January 1882 – 15 February 1964) was an American academic and anthropologist.
Webb became an assistant professor of physics at the University of Kentucky in 1908 and was promoted to department head in 1915.
During the First World War he enlisted with the 84th Infantry Division, rising to the rank of Major.
He was granted an honorary doctorate from the University of Alabama in 1937, though because of fears that he would not agree to accept the degree, he was tricked into traveling to the school and "captured" shortly before the award ceremony.
His "extensive list of site reports...perhaps constitute his major contribution to American archaeology".
