Weinland (* 30. August 1829 Grabenstetten, Württemberg; † 19. September 1915 Hohenwittlingen) was a zoologist and writer of fiction stories. His most famous book Rulaman, a novel about his swabian homeland in prehistoric times, was inspired in part by his own ethnographic research in the US and Central America on native american indians.
