Henry Lyte (1529? – 16 October 1607), also known as Henry the Elder, was an English botanist and antiquary. He is best known for two works, A niewe Herball (1578), which was a translation of the Cruydeboeck of Rembert Dodoens (Antwerp, 1564), and an antiquarian volume, The Light of Britayne: a Recorde of the honorable Originall and Antiquitie of Britaine (1588), both of which are dedicated to Queen Elizabeth I.
