Karel Dežman, also known as Dragotin Dežman and Karl Deschmann (3 January 1821 – 11 March 1889), was a Carniolan liberal politician and natural scientist.
He was one of the most prominent personalities of the political, cultural, and scientific developments in the 19th-century Duchy of Carniola.
He is considered one of the fathers of modern archeology in what is today Slovenia.
He also made important contributions in botany, zoology, mineralogy, geology and mineralogy.
