Tanyidamani was a Kushite king of Meroë who ruled in the second half of the 2nd century BCE. He was most likely the son of king Adikhalamani and Queen Nahirqo.
Tanyidamani is known by some objects, the most remarkable among these is a large stele from Jebel Barkal: it is the longest known text in the Meroitic language. Another smaller, red siltstone stele was found in the temple of Apedemak at Meroë, and is now at the Walters Art Museum.
