Robert Richard Anstice (1813–1853) was an English clergyman and mathematician who wrote two remarkable papers on combinatorics, published the same year he died in the Cambridge and Dublin mathematical journal. He pioneered the use of primitive roots in this field, anticipating the work of Eugen Netto on Steiner's triplets.
