Aeropus I (Ancient Greek: Ἀέροπος, romanized: Aéropos; fl. c. 563 BC) was king of the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedon. He was a member of the Argead dynasty and son of Philip I. By allowing thirty years for the span of an average generation from the beginning of Archelaus' reign in 413 BC, British historian Nicholas Hammond estimated that Aeropus ruled around 563 BC.
