Atyusz III from the kindred Atyusz (Hungarian: Atyusz nembeli (III) Atyusz; died after 1233) was a Hungarian influential baron, the most outstanding member of his family, who served as Judge royal from 1215 to 1217, during the reign of Andrew II of Hungary.

He was born into the Atyusz kindred as the eldest son of Atyusz II (also known as Atyusz the Great), who inherited the majority of the family property from his brother (or uncle), the childless Stephen, according to the latter's will and testament. He had at least one younger brother, Lawrence, who also functioned as Judge royal for a short time in 1222 (former genealogical works incorrectly referred to Lawrence as the child of Atyusz III). Perhaps Denis I was also a brother of Atyusz III and Lawrence. As a result of the extended clan, Atyusz III had several notable cousins, including Solomon (also Judge royal in 1222 and a close ally to Atyusz) and ispáns Miska III and Sal. 19th-century historian Mór Wertner mistakenly referred to Atyusz as a member of the Vázsony kindred.

According to a non-authentic charter from the 1320s, which falsely dated 22 March 1262, Atyusz III's wife was lady Berbur from the Hont-Pázmány kindred as the daughter of Sebes Hont-Pázmány, the Master of the cupbearers between 1209 and 1217. As the charter says, comes Abraham, son of Sebes, sold Zánka to his sister, which he had formerly inherited from Atyusz III, his brother-in-law. Although the document is definitely a forgery, nevertheless historian Gábor Nemes accepts the information can be found on Atyusz's marriage, as the objective of the diploma's falsification is not affected from this side. The non-authentic charter was part of a trial court between the Amadé and Szentgyörgyi families for the ownership of Várkony (today part of Vrakúň, Slovakia).
