The Abantes or Abantians (Greek: Ἄβαντες, Ábantes) were an ancient Greek tribe. Their home was Euboea.
The Abantes were a Proto-Greek tribe, which settled in the island of Euboea. When the Trojan War concluded, the Abantes wandered around for a while, and finally settled in the region of Thesprotia. Herodotus states that many Abantes from Euboea had established colonies in Chios and Asia Minor. In the Iliad, Homer mentions the Abantes among the Greek allies in the Trojan War. Their leader was Elephenor the son of Chalkodon. The Trojan warrior Agenor killed Elephenor.
