Terowongan Eupalinos atau akuaduk Eupalinianos (Yunani: Efpalinion orygma - Ευπαλίνιον όρυγμα) adalah sebuah terowongan sepanjang 1.036 m (3.399 ft) di Samos, Yunani, yang dibangun pada abad ke-6 SM untuk dijadikan sebagai akuaduk.[1] Terowongan tersebut adalah terowongan kedua yang diketahui dalam sejarah yang diekskavasi dari kedua ujung (bahasa Yunani Kuno: αμφίστομον, translit. amphistomon, "memiliki dua pintu masuk"), dan terowongan pertama dengan pengukuran berbasis geometri dalam pembangunannya.[2] Saat itu, terowongan tersebut menjadi tempat wisata populer.

It has been posited that it was dug by maintaining depths close enough to the surface of the solid karst that the diggers could hear loud banging from the surface guiding the two teams towards one another.
