William Comyns Beaumont, also known as Comyns Beaumont, (1873–1956) was a British journalist, author, and lecturer. Beaumont was a staff writer for the Daily Mail and eventually became editor of the Bystander in 1903 and then The Graphic in 1932. Beaumont was an eccentric with several unusual beliefs, many of which were later mirrored by Immanuel Velikovsky's works. (However, according to Frank Joseph: "Beaumont’s work was taken over entirely by Immanuel Velikovsky in his famous Worlds in Collision (1950), which elaborated on the possibility of a celestial impact as responsible for the sudden extinction of a pre-Flood civilization.")

Among Beaumont's propositions were:
