Jacqueline Roumeguère-Eberhardt (27 November 1927 – 29 March 2006) was a South African-French anthropologist and sociologist known in cryptozoology for her research into cryptohominids in East Africa, particularly Kenya, during the 1970s and 1980s. The results of her research were published in Dossier X: Les Hominidés Non Identifiés des Forêts d'Afrique (1984), in which Roumeguère posited that East Africa is home to five different "unknown" hominids, three of which are uncontacted but anatomically modern humans, with the remaining two possibly explained by Australopithecus, Homo habilis, or Homo erectus.[1][2]
