Francesco Scipione, marchese di Maffei (Italian: [franˈtʃesko ʃiˈpjoːne, marˈkeːze di mafˈfɛi]; 1675–1755) was an Italian writer and art critic, author of many articles and plays. An antiquarian with a humanist education whose publications on Etruscan antiquities stand as incunabula of Etruscology, he engaged in running skirmishes in print with his rival in the field of antiquities, Antonio Francesco Gori.
