Colleen Marie Darnell (, née Manassa; born July 26, 1980) is an American Egyptologist, whose focus includes Late Period uses of the Underworld Books, ancient Egyptian military history, the literature of New Kingdom Egypt, and Egyptian revival history. Her research in Egyptian military history has led to the first recreation of the tactics of the Battle of Perire, c. 1208 BCE and one source says that her study The Great Karnak Inscription of Merneptah "replaces all other earlier studies of the key historical narratives relating Merneptah's war against the Libyans." Her research on pharaoh Tutankhamun's military actions contributed to Tutankhamun's Armies: Battle and Conquest in Ancient Egypt's Late Eighteenth Dynasty (co-authored with John Coleman Darnell) and was featured in the historical section of the 2010 documentary "King Tut Unwrapped." In Egypt, she has made several archaeological discoveries as the director of the Moalla Survey Project, an ongoing archaeological project.
