Kuri of Kappadokia (died 333 BC) was a Achaemenid Persian general in the service of the Satrapy of Cappadocia during the 4th century BC. He served as Satrap Labashi's right-hand man during his counterattack against the Macedonian invaders of Anatolia in 334 BC, and, in March 333 BC, he led an army south from Gordion with the objective of retaking Mazaka from Crios' Macedonian army. In the ensuing Battle of Mazaka, despite having superior numbers and an almost assured chance at victory, Kuri was killed in battle and his army destroyed.
