Mari (Tell Hariri modern, bahasa Arab: تل حريري) merupakan sebuah kota Semit kuno yang terletak di Suriah modern. Sisa-sisa dari kota ini merupakan tel yang terletak 11 kilometer di barat laut Abu Kamal di tepi barat sungai Efrat, sekitar 120 kilometer tenggara Deir ez-Zor. Kota ini berkembang sebagai pusat perdagangan dan negara hegemonik pada sekitar tahun 2900 SM dan 1759 SM. Sebagai kota yang dibangun dengan sengaja, keberadaan Mari terkait dengan posisinya di tengah rute perdagangan Efrat; posisi ini menjadikannya perantara antara Sumeria di selatan dan Levant di barat.
