Konstantinos Vardalachos (Kythira, 1753/55 -1830) was a Greek scholar, originally from Chios, author of a multitude of teaching manuals in the spirit of European Enlightenment. He was a very good connoisseur of the positive sciences, but also of ancient Greek literature. The breadth of his knowledge was reflected in the didactic books he compiled, contributing in this way to the development of Greek education of his time and to the transmission of European modern theories and scientific ideas in the area of ​​Hellenism in the Ottoman Empire.
