Oea orOia (Ancient Greek:Ὀία) orOee orOie (Οἴη) orOe (Ὄη or Ὀή) was ademe ofancient Athens.
The location of Oea has been a matter of debate, with some situating it above the Pythium, to the west ofMount Aegaleos, to the north of the pass ofPoecilum,[1] and recent work putting the site northeast ofAspropyrgos.[2][3]
In the Boule of 500, Oea held six seats, and the deme seems to have maintained this rough scale into the Roman period.[4]
