Gligorije Elezović (Serbian Cyrillic: Глигорије Елезовић; 18 January 1879 — 17 October 1960) was a Serbian historian and member of the Serbian Academy of Science and Arts.
He was also one of the founding members of the Serb Democratic League, headed by Bogdan Radenković. In 1931, the Serbian Royal Academy (Srpska kraljevska akademija) established a Committee for the Collection of Eastern Historical and Literary Sources, which employed scholars like Gligorije Elezović and Fahim Barjaktarević who were sent to archives in Istanbul to investigate Ottoman sources related to Serbian history. Elezović was a scholar from Skopje (then South Serbia) with a prolific record of publishing Ottoman documents, and trained in Albanian and Turkish languages. He compiled and published Rečnik kosovo-metohiskog dijalekta (Dictionary of Kosovo-Metohija dialect) in Belgrade in 1932.
