Abuna Takla Haymanot (Ge'ez: አቡነ ተክለ ሃይማኖት, born Melaku Wolde-Mikael: 21 September 1917 – 29 August 1988) was the third Patriarch of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church from 1976 to 1988.

After political turmoil of the Ethiopian Revolution, the Derg arrested Abuna Theophilos in May 1976 to consecrate Melaku. The government proceeded to hold church assembly to elect the bahtawi (hermit) Melaku that has little education around the subject. On 7 July 1976, The Assembly of the Church held under the leadership of the Locum Tenens (Acting Patriarch) Archbishop Abune Yohannes that elevated Melaku to Patriarch on 18 July, and ultimately enthroned on 29 August.
