Aureliano Blanquet (31 December 1849 – 7 April 1919) was a general of the Federal Army during the Mexican Revolution. He was a key participant in the coup d'état during the Ten Tragic Days.[1] One historian has identified Blanquet as "one of the major villains of the Mexican Revolution".[2]

Although Gen. Felix Diaz knew nothing of the arrest of Francisco I. Madero until General Victoriano Huerta and Gen. Aureliano Blanquet had captured the Mexican President in his quarters in the National Palace yesterday morning, it was the rebel leader, nevertheless, who brought about the downfall of the Madero Government.
