Leonti Mroveli (Georgian: ლეონტი მროველი) was the 11th-century Georgian historian and priest. Mroveli is not his last name, but comes from the title of bishop at Ruisi (near Urbnisi), a post he held as of 1066. Hence, another modern English transliteration of his name is Leontius of Ruisi.

He is usually credited by some historians to have written several pieces of old Georgian chronicles included in Kartlis Cxovreba, while others consider him to have been just a compiler.
