Dmytro Ivanovych Bahalii (Ukrainian: Дмитро Іванович Багалій, Russian: Дмитрій Ивановичъ Багалѣй; 1857-1932) was a Ukrainian historian and public and political figure, one of founding members of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, and a full member of the Shevchenko Scientific Society since 1923. He was also a professor and rector at Kharkiv University (1887, 1906–1910), and mayor of Kharkiv (1914–1917). He served as an official in the Tsarist government, earning the title of Active State Councillor. Later, he became an honorary member of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, and nine universities across the Russian Empire (1906). Until 1917, he was a member of the Constitutional Democratic Party and the State Council. Following the February Revolution, he voluntarily handed over his mayoral seat of Kharkiv to the Socialist-Revolutionary Vladimir Karelin. Starting in the 1930s, Bahalii faced repression by the Soviets. He was the first to compile a full collection of the works of Hryhoriy Skovoroda.
