Annaea or Annaia (

Maeander River. Thucydides suggests it was on or near the coast, and in or near the valley of the Maeander, and that it was a naval station, close enough Samos to annoy the Samians.[3] Some Samian exiles lived there during the Peloponnesian War.[4]

It later became a bishopric, now a titular see (see Anaea (Asia)).

Its site is located near Kadı Kalesi, Aydın Province, Turkey.[5][6]
