Born in Chadlington, Oxfordshire, he was the younger brother of the more famous Assyriologist, Sir Henry Rawlinson. George Rawlinson was a scholar of classical languages and history, having graduated from Trinity College, Oxford in 1838, where he later became a fellow.

His works, characterized by meticulous research and a clear, narrative style, made significant impacts on the study of ancient history during his time. Among his notable works is the 'History of the Sasanian Empire,' which delves into the intricate history of the Sasanian Persians, a regional power in the Near East from 224 to 651 CE. His comprehensive depiction of this empire is considered a valuable resource for understanding the complexities of the late ancient world and the transition towards the early medieval period.
