Bonifacio Pinedo (died 1954) was a king of Bolivia as the Afro-Bolivian king. Born in the tropical regions of Yungas in Bolivia, his monarchy is one of the few traditional African monarchies that has survived the vicissitudes of the middle passage and subsequent slavery. He was the grandfather of the current king, Julio Pinedo, and was descended from Uchicho, a prince from the Kongo kingdom who was transported to Bolivia in 1820.
