(fr) Edward Simpson (ur. 1815?, zm. przypuszczalnie w okolicach 1880 roku), znany pod pseudonimami Flint Jack, Fossil Willy, Old Antiquarian, Cockney Bill – jeden z najsłynniejszych fałszerzy zabytków, czynny w połowie XIX wieku. Łączna liczba wszystkich fałszerstw dokonanych przez Simpsona jest trudna do ustalenia. Podejrzewa się, że niektóre z nich do dziś nieświadomie mogą znajdować się w niektórych lokalnych brytyjskich muzeach. (pl) Edward Simpson alias Flint Jack was een beruchte Britse archeologische vervalser uit de 19e eeuw. Simpson werd geboren in 1815 in het dorp in Noord-Yorkshire. Op jonge leeftijd ging hij in de leer bij de plaatselijke geoloog en historicus Dr. George Young. Hij was eerst fossielenjaer voordat hij in 1843 de wereld van de vervalsing betrad. De eerste van de vele aliassen en bijnamen van Edward Simpson, en zijn eerste poging tot vervalsing, zou zijn ontstaan toen hij een heer genaamd Dotchon in Whitby ontmoette. Dotchon liet Simpson zijn eerste vuurstenen pijlpunt zien en vroeg of hij die mocht kopiëren. Zo werd zijn alter ego Flint Jack geboren. (nl)
