Sakuji Yoshimura (吉村 作治, Yoshimura Sakuji, born 1 February 1943) is a Japanese Egyptologist. He currently is Director of the Institute of Egyptology,[1] Waseda University, Tokyo.

In 1978, Yoshimura and his team built a miniature pyramid for a Nippon Television documentary series. They originally planned to build a scaled-down model of the Cheops Pyramid, but the cost of limestone forced them to reduce the size. [2]
