Leonhard Schultze-Jena


Leonhard Schultze-Jena was a German explorer, zoologist, and anthropologist known for his explorations of German Southwest Africa and New Guinea, as well as for his studies on Mesoamerican languages.
In 1912, he adopted the surname Schultze-Jena from an honorary title that was given to his father, gynecologist and obstetrician Bernhard Sigmund Schultze.
The Leonhard Schultze River and Leonhard Schultze languages of Papua New Guinea are named after him.
