Tinde (Ancient Greek: Τίνδη), also known as Tindium or Tindion (Τίνδιον),[1] was a town of Chalcidice in ancient Macedonia. It belonged to the Delian League since it appears in the tribute registry of Athens for the year 434/3 BCE, where it paid a phoros of 3000 drachmas jointly with the cities of Cithas, Gigonus, Smila and Lisaea.[2]

Its site is unlocated,[3] but probably in Bottiaea.[4]
