Elias Mavromichalis was a Greek revolutionary who fought in the War of Independence (1821-1829).

Mavromichalis was born in Mani, in 1795, the eldest son of Petrobey Mavromichalis.

In the Greek War of Independence, Mavromichalis fought at the Siege of Tripolis and the Battle of Valtetsi under his uncle Kyriakoulis Mavromichalis.

On January 5, 1822, Mavromichalis was sent to Euboea to further the cause of the revolt on that island. He was killed there, in a battle at Styra, on January 22, 1822.
