Eudóxio César Azedo Gneco (Samora Correia, Benavente, June 21, 1849 - Lisbon, June 29, 1911), better known as Azedo Gneco, was an Italian-Portuguese engraver, medalist, apprentice sculptor and political activist.
An orator and journalist, he was one of the founders of the Portuguese Socialist Party in 1875 and one of its first leaders.
