Niccolò Aggiunti was an Italian mathematician, born at Sansepolcro in 1600 and dying in 1635. He studied at Pisa under Benedetto Castelli and, after receiving his degree in 1621, became a teacher of Ferdinando II de' Medici. During this period he probably met Galileo Galilei and later became one of his favourite students. In 1626 he was awarded the chair of mathematics at Pisa as Castelli's successor. One of the main streets in the historic centre of his native Sansepolcro is named after him.
