This article is about the historian. For his later relative, the theologian, see Al-Makīn Jirjis ibn al-ʿAmīd the Younger.

Jirjis al-Makīn (Arabic: جرجس المكين; 1206–after 1280, maybe 1293), known by his nisba Ibn al-ʿAmīd (Arabic: ابن العميد), was a Coptic Christian historian who wrote in Arabic. His name is sometimes anglicised as George Elmacin (Latin: Georgius Elmacinus).
