Anna-Liisa Hirviluoto ( February 16, 1929 Helsinki - April 23, 2000 ) was a Finnish archaeologist. She served as the director of the Finnish National Board of Antiquities and its predecessor, the Archaeological Commission positions for 35 years.

Her research specialty was iron age excavations like her work at the Turku (Kaarina) Ristimäki site in 1962. In addition, as part of her duties Hirviluoto oversaw the country's road construction projects to ensure that road routes neither threatened protected areas of the Antiquities Act or the wider environmental management. Under her leadership, archival records were compiled and regional planning units began to publish lists of protected sites.
