Vito Maria Amico (15 February 1697 - 5 December 1762) was an Italian monk, historian and writer.
He was born in Catania to Vito Amico and Anna Statella, both from Catanese noble families.
He later became overall prior of all 25 Benedictine monasteries in Messina, Militello, Castelbuono and Monreale and was made abbot in 1757.
He also collected pottery, vases, medals and coins from archaeological excavations, later donating them to Catania's Museo di antichità greco-romane, sited beside the University of Catania's library, which he had founded himself - in a short period that museum had a notable collection.
He later took the chair in secular history at the same university and founded Catania's first public library.
