Elias Ashmole byl anglický starožitník, který se věnoval studiu přírody s baconovským zájmem. Jeho rozsáhlá knihovna a sbírky odrážely široký rozsah jeho zájmů, od historie a práva po alchymii a botaniku. Ačkoliv byl zakládajícím členem Královské společnosti pro rozvoj experimentální vědy, jeho zájmy byly stejně tak starožitné a mystické jako vědecké. Své rozsáhlé sbírky a knihovnu odkázal Oxfordské univerzitě, čímž založil Ashmolean Museum.
