Karijotas or Koriat (baptized Michal; died between 1358 and 1363) was the Duke of Navahrudak and Vaukavysk, one of the sons of Gediminas, Grand Duke of Lithuania. In 1349 Algirdas sent him along with two sons, Aikštas or Eikšis from Eišiškes and Simeon from Svislach, to Jani Beg, Khan of the Golden Horde, to negotiate an alliance against the Teutonic Knights and rising Grand Duchy of Moscow. However, Jani Beg handed Karijotas over to Simeon of Russia for a ransom.
