In Greek mythology, [[Acrisius]] (/əˈkraɪsiəs/; Ancient Greek: [[Ἀκρίσιος]]) was a king of Argos. He was the grandfather of the famous Greek demi-god Perseus. Acrisius was the son of Abas and Aglaea (or Ocalea, depending on the author), grandson of Lynceus, great-grandson of Danaus. He was the twin brother of Proetus and the half brother of Lyrcus. Acrisius was father by Eurydice or Aganippe of Danae and thus grandfather of the hero Perseus through her. His other daughter was Evarete, wife of King Oenomaus of Pisa in Elis.

Acrisius and Proetus was said to have quarrelled even in the womb of their mother and when Abas died and Acrisius had grown up, he expelled Proetus from his inheritance. On his exile, Proetus was supported by his father-in-law Iobates, the Lycian, Proetus returned, and Acrisius was compelled to share his kingdom with his brother by giving Tiryns to him, while he retained Argos for himself.

According to the Scholiast on Euripides, Acrisius was the founder of the Delphic amphictyony. Strabo believes that this amphictyony existed before the time of Acrisius, and that he was only the first who regulated the affairs of the amphictyons, fixed the towns which were to take part in the council, gave to each its vote, and settled the jurisdiction of the amphictyons.

Στην ελληνική μυθολογία ο Ακρίσιος ήταν βασιλιάς του Άργους. Από γενεαλογικής απόψεως ήταν γιος του Άβαντα και της Αγλαΐας, κόρης του Μαντινέα. Ο Ακρίσιος είχε ένα δίδυμο αδελφό, τον Προίτο, με τον οποίο είναι χαρακτηριστικό ότι μάλωνε από τότε που βρίσκονταν ακόμα μέσα στην κοιλιά της Αγλαΐας. Οι έριδες των δύο αδελφών συνεχίσθηκαν και κατά την παιδική τους ηλικία, διαχρονικά. Φυσιολογικά, όταν μεγάλωσαν ο Άβαντας χώρισε στα δύο το βασίλειό του της Αργολίδας και έδωσε το Άργος στο Ακρίσιο και την Τίρυνθα στον Προίτο, μετά από αιματηρές μάχες μεταξύ των δύο κληρονόμων. Μάλιστα μυθολογείται ότι σε αυτές τις μάχες χρησιμοποιήθηκε για πρώτη φορά η ασπίδα ως αμυντικό όπλο.
