Lyla Pinch Brock is a Canadian Egyptologist, specializing in epigraphy. She lives in Saissac, France.

She has taken part in a number of archaeological projects, including the Tell el-Borg Project and the Theban Mapping Project. On behalf of the Royal Ontario Museum, she was responsible for epigraphy in the tomb of Amenmose (TT89) and wholly responsible for excavating and conserving the tomb of Anen (TT120). She also cleared and conserved KV55 from 1992-1996. During excavation of the tomb in 1993, she discovered an ostracon painted with part of the original plan of the tomb among other objects. The pottery from this job has recently been published.

She was married to Edwin C. Brock, who was also an Egyptologist until his death in 2015.
