Areobindus (died 546) was an official and military commander of the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire. He served as a senator in Constantinople and briefly as magister militum in Africa in 545/6.^[1]

Areobindus was sent to Africa by Emperor Justinian I (r. 527–565) following the crisis which had erupted during Sergius's command.^[2][1] Areobindus's retinue included a contingent of Armenian troops led by Artabanes and John, descendants of the royal Armenian Arsacid line.^[2]

An inexperienced military commander, Areobindus proved unable to deal with the issue.^[2] After the Battle of Thacia, Justinian recalled Sergius and made Areobindus "overall commander" but the mutiny had already spread through the ranks.^[2]

In 546, Areobindus was killed in Carthage by the rebel Guntarith (Guntharis), the dux of Numidia.^[1][2] Areobindus was married to Praejecta.^[2]
