Antonio Amico (died 1641) was a Roman Catholic Canon of Palermo, and ecclesiastical historian of Syracuse and Messina.[1] He was also known as a historiographer of Philip IV of Spain and the religious and secular history of Sicily.[2]

Among his works is a "Brevis et exacta narratio....Siciliæ regum annales ab anno 1060 usque ad præsens sæculum" (English: "Two short stories....Sicilian chronicle of kings, from the year 1060 until the present day").

He was apparently well-regarded by Pietro Carrera and Jerome of Ragusa.[2]
