Matija Ivanić (Vrbanj, Hvar around 1445 – Rome 1523) was a prominent 16th century citizen of the Dalmatian city of Hvar that led the Hvar Rebellion (1510–1514) against the Venetian Republic. After the defeat of the Rebellion, Ivanić became a symbol of freedom in Venetian-controlled Dalmatia. Personifying defiance both against Venice and against the oppressive noble classes. He was mentioned in the well-known Dalmatian song which expresses these themes, the "Padaj silo i nepravdo" ("Fall, oh Force and Injustice!").
