Pierre Palliot was a French printer and genealogist, born in Paris in 1608 [1] . At the age of 25 he married the daughter of a printer, Nicolas Spirinx, in Dijon. He took up the trade of his father-in-law. He served as a royal printer from 1643 and as the printer to the Duke-Bishop de Langres.

During his career he published extensively on topics including heraldry and genealogy, with a specific focus on Burgundian nobility. His works include a significant volume of heraldic engravings.

He is credited for inventing a system for ecclesiastical hats that is now commonly used in contemporary ecclesiastical heraldry.

He died in Dijon in 1698, at the age of 90. His work was continued by his son-in-law, Louis Secard.
