Antonio Amico (died 1641) was a Roman Catholic Canon of Palermo, and ecclesiastical historian of Syracuse and Messina. Philip IV awarded him with the title Royal Historiographer of Sicily in 1622. Amico conducted extensive archival research in Sicily, discovering and transcribing important documents relating to the history of the island. He died in 1641, having published several historical works of great value, and leaving many others in manuscript. Amico's manuscripts were deposited after his death in the libraries of the duke of Madonia and of Jaime de Palafox y Cardona, archbishop of Palermo.
