Abbé Marius Chaîne (10 August 1873 – 19 January 1960) was a French scholar of Ethiopic and Coptic philology.

Marius Chaîne was born in 1873 in Tarascon, Bouches-du-Rhône. He studied at the École des Hautes Études at the Sorbonne, where he was a student of Joseph Halévy, and at the École du Louvre in Paris, where he was a student of Eugène Revillout.[1] In 1897 he was ordained and joined the Society of Jesus, but abandoned it after World War I.[citation needed]

Chaîne was a professor of Oriental languages at Saint Joseph University, Beirut; the Pontifical Gregorian University, Rome; and the Pontifical Biblical Institute. He penned the article "Ethiopia" for the Catholic Encyclopedia.[2]

He devoted his life to Ethiopic and Coptic philology.[3]

He died at Sainte-Marie du Désert Abbey, in Bellegarde-Sainte-Marie, Haute-Garonne.[4]
