Joam Mattheus Adami, (Italian: Giovanni Matteo Adami) (17 May 1576 – 22 September 1633) was a Jesuit missionary born in Mazara del Vallo (Sicilian: Mazzara), in the south-west of Sicily. Adami left for Macau in 1602, travelling via India, and reached Japan in 1604 after completing his studies. He served as the chief priest of the rectory of Yanagawa in Chikugo Province and was exiled to Macau in November 1614. However, he returned to Japan in July 1618. He pursued his missionary activities primarily in Oshu. He was captured and martyred at the gallows and the pit (ana-tsurushi) in Nagasaki on 22 September 1633.
