'''Manolis Andronikos''' ([[Greek language|Greek]]: Μανώλης Ανδρόνικος) ([[October 23]], [[1919]] – [[March 30]], [[1992]]) was a [[Greece|Greek]] [[archaeologist]]. He was born in Proussa (Bursa), [[Asia Minor]] and settled in [[Thessaloniki]] with his family after the [[Asia Minor Disaster]] of [[1922]].

Andronikos studied philosophy in the [[University of Athens]] and became professor of classical archaeology at the [[Aristotle University]] of [[Thessaloniki]].

As an archaeologist, he performed many digs in various parts of [[Macedonia]] including [[Veria]], [[Naoussa]], [[Kilkis]] and [[Chalkidiki]] but came to concentrate his efforts at [[Vergina]], [[Imathia prefecture]], at a site that had been previously dug by Greek archaeologist K. Romeos.

On [[November 8]], [[1977]] ''Manolis Andronikos'' announced that he had found unopened the tomb of [[Philip II of Macedon]] at [[Vergina]]. The finds from this tomb were later included in the travelling exhibit "[[The Search for Alexander]]" displayed at four cities in the United States from 1980 to 1982. While the discovery is of great archeological importance, the identification of the tomb with Philip has been disputed.

Andronikos died on [[March 30]], [[1992]].
