'''Daniel I of Armenia''' ({{langx|hy|Դանիել Ա }}) was the 16th [[Catholicos|Catholicos-Patriarch]] of the [[Armenian Apostolic Church]]. He was a Syrian who reigned as the Catholicoi after the reign of four hereditary [[Parthia]]n catholicoi ([[Gregory the Illuminator|St. Gregory I the Enlightener]], his son [[St. Aristaces I]], [[St. Vrtanes I]] and [[St. Husik I]]. He only ruled less than one year in 347 AD and was succeeded by Pharen I of Armenia.

Daniel was an ethnic [[Assyrian people|Syriac]] and a disciple of [[Gregory the Illuminator]]. After [[Tiran of Armenia|King Tiran]] ordered the death of Catholicos [[St. Husik I|Husik]], he requested Daniel to replace him. However, Daniel refused the appointment and accused the King of a lavish lifestyle. Angered by Daniel's response, the King ordered that Daniel should be strangled.{{sfn|Dočkal|1940|p=191}}
