Joachim Menant (16 April 1820 – 30 August 1899) was a French magistrate and orientalist.

He was born in Cherbourg. He studied law and became vice-president of the tribunal civilofRouen in 1878, and a member of the court of appeal three years later. But he became best known for his studies on cuneiform inscriptions.[1]

He also collaborated with Julius Oppert. He was admitted to the Academy of Inscriptions in 1887, and died in Paris two years later.[1]

His daughter Delphine (b. 1850) received a prize from the Académie française for her Les Parsis, histoire des communautés zoroastriennes de l'Inde (1898), and was sent in 1900–1901 to British India on a scientific mission, of which she published a report in 1903.[1]
