Eira (Ancient Greek: Εἶρα), also known as Hira or Ira (Ἰρά), and Hire or Ire (Ἱρὴ), was a fortified settlement on a mountain of the same name, in the north of ancient Messenia, near the Neda River. During the Second Messenian War the Messenians fortified the place, and Aristomenes defended it for ten years against the Spartans. Pausanias dates the capture of the city by the Lacedaemonians to the first year of the 28th Olympiad (668 BCE). The Arcadians welcomed many Messenians who withdrew thither after the capture of Eira, while the captured Messenian prisoners were converted to helots by the Lacedaemonians, and the rest of Messenians who lived on the coast were exiled to Cyllene, in Elis.

  • Hira (en griego, Ιρή) es el nombre de una antigua ciudad griega de Mesenia. Se trataba de una de las siete ciudades mesenias que, según narra Homero en la Ilíada, fueron ofrecidas por Agamenón a Aquiles a cambio de que este depusiera su ira.​ Estrabón la situaba en una zona montañosa cerca de Megalópolis, en el camino que llevaba a Andania pero dice que había otros que eran de la opinión de que debía identificarse con Mésola.​ Hira fue un lugar destacado durante la . Tras la , los supervivientes mesenios se refugiaron en Hira y resistieron el asedio de los lacedemonios durante once años.​ El episodio final de la guerra fue la toma de la ciudad de Hira por los lacedemonios, que Pausanias fecha en el año primero de la 28ª Olimpiada (668 a. C.) Los arcadios acogieron a muchos mesenios de los que se retiraron tras la toma de Hira, mientras los prisioneros mesenios capturados fueron convertidos en ilotas por los lacedemonios, y el resto de mesenios que habitaban en la costa se exiliaron a , en Élide.​ Pausanias añade que 297 años después de la toma de Hira, en el año tercero de la 102ª Olimpiada (370 a. C.), los mesenios volvieron al Peloponeso y recuperaron su territorio.​ Pausanias menciona la posibilidad de que la ciudad de Abia antes tuviera el nombre de Ιρή, la ciudad citada por Homero, pero parece distinguir esta Ιρή de la Hira de la que relata su papel en la Segunda Guerra Mesenia.​ En el monte , situado cerca de Andania y del río Neda, hay unos restos que algunos han identificado con la fortaleza de Hira​ pero otros autores consideran cualquier identificación de Hira como problemática.​ (es)

Pausanias mentions the possibility that the city of Abia anciently had the name of Ιρή (Ire), the city cited by Homer, but seems to distinguish this Ιρή from the Eira of he recounts in the Second Messian War. Its site is located near the modern Kakaletri, between it and . On Mount , located near Andania and the Neda River, there are remains that some have identified with Eira. (en)
