Achaeans are the inhabitants of Achaea in Greece. However, the meaning of Achaea changed during the course of Ancient history, and thus Achaeans may refer to:

  • Achaeans (Homer), a name used by Homer in the Iliad for Mycenaean-era Greeks in general.
  • Achaeans (tribe), one of the major tribes of Greece according to the Hesiodic foundation myth
  • Achaea Phthiotis, a region of ancient Thessaly
  • Achaea, the modern Greek administrative unit
