Hyameia (Ancient Greek: Ὑαμεία),[1] also known as Hyamia (Ὑαμία), was a town of ancient Messenia. According to tradition, Cresphontes established the territory of Hyameia (called the Hyameitis) as one of the five territories into which he divided Messenia.[2][3] It was located between Messene and Androusa.[4][5]
