Eumene di Cardia (in greco: Εὐμένης; Cardia, 362 a.C. circa – Gadamarta, 316 a.C.) è stato un militare e ammiraglio greco antico. Si tratta, probabilmente, del diadoco più conosciuto grazie allo storico Geronimo di Cardia, che di Eumene fu aiutante personale e lo ricordò nell'opera Storia dei Diadochi, di cui restano solo frammenti; ma la sua testimonianza ci è stata tramandata dagli storici successivi. Notizie continuative, infatti, sono offerte soprattutto dai libri XVIII-XX di Diodoro Siculo (integrabili con i libri XIII-XIV della Epitoma historiarum Philippicarum Pompei Trogi di Marco Giuniano Giustino e, in misura minore con quanto rimasto di Arriano, Storia della successione di Alessandro), dalla Vita di Eumene di Plutarco (preceduta dalla ben più breve biografia di Cornelio Nepote).
