Kitti () (d. 1040) was King of Anuradhapura for eight days in 1040. An official and Commander-in-chief of the court of Kassapa VI, he usurped the throne after the latters death. His reign was from Rohana as the capital of the Anuradhapura kingdom was under attack from the Chola Empire and Rohana functioned as the base for the Sinhalese resistance. Kitti was deposed by his successor Mahālāna-Kitti. Sinhalese sources often pass over his reign.
