Natale Conti or Latin Natalis Comes, also Natalis de Comitibus and French Noel le Comte (1520 – 1582), was an Italian mythographer, poet, humanist and historian.
Conti, whose family (according to his own statement) originated in Rome, was born in Milan.
He described himself as "Venetian" because his working life was spent in Venice.
