The Amidei family was an ancient Italian noble family from Florence, Italy. The family was of Roman descent but lived in Florence since its foundation. They have been described by Niccolò Machiavelli as being one of the most powerful families of its time, and were featured in Dante's poems on the political struggles of the Guelphs and Ghibellines in medieval Italy. Ancestors of the House of Piccolomini, Patricians of Siena, they married into the Medici family during the 20th century. The Amidei also claimed a Julia gens (Gens Iulia) ancestry, through the Cottius family, Patricians of Rome. 160px|thumb|left|Marriage of Buondelmonte by Francesco Saverio Altamura|Saverio Altamura.
