Amanineteyerike (Amanneteyerike, Aman-nete-yerike, Irike-Amannote) was a Kushite King of Meroë. His reign is dated to the end of the 5th century BCE.

Amanineteyerike took on a full set of titles based on those of the Egyptian Pharaohs.

Amanineteyerike was the son of King Malewiebamani, and brother of Baskakeren. His predecessor Talakhamani was either an older brother or an uncle. He was buried at the royal cemetery in Nuri (Nuri 12).

The earliest occurrence of the name Meroe so far found was on the stele of Amanineteyerike.
