Ineia () is a village in the Paphos District of Cyprus, located 1 km south of Dhrousha.
Topography
Inia is located 625 m above sea level. It has 385 residents. Annual rainfall is 610 mm.
Transportation
Located in the Pafos (Paphos) region, the village of Ineia sits on the mountainous area of Laona and overlooks the Akamas Peninsula. Located 30 km north of Pafos, Ineia can be reached by following either the B7 route and then the E711, or taking the E709 and then the F708.
Naming
Ineia is believed to derive from the Latin "Vinea Engadi" which was a vineyard belonging to the Knights Hospitaller, who purchased it from the Knights Templar as suggested by Ludolf von Suchem on his tour to the island in 1350. The vineyards here produced Commandaria.
Ineia initially takes its name from the word "οίνος" - the word in the ancient Greek language for "wine" - while historical sources refer to it as "Wine" with the spelling of the name of the village gradually changing over time and taking the current form. Another theory is that Macedonian generals of Alexander found settlements similar to India, hence named it "India", which later changed to "Ineia".
Climate
The average annual temperature is 16.6 °C.
