Neoptolemus I of Epirus (Greek: ) (370 BC – 357 BC) king of Epirus was son of Alcetas I, and father of Alexander I of Epirus and Queen Olympias. He was maternal grandfather of Alexander the Great. On the death of Alcetas, Neoptolemus and his brother Arymbas agreed to divide the kingdom, and continued to rule their respective portions without any interruption of the harmony between them, until the death of Neoptolemus, which, according to Droysen, may be placed about 360 BC.
