Colonides or Kolonides (Ancient Greek: Κολωνίδες), also known as Colonis or Kolonis (Κολωνίς)^[1] or as Colone or Kolone (Κολώνη),^[2] was a town in the southwest of ancient Messenia described by Pausanias as standing upon a height at a short distance from the sea, and 40 stadia from Asine.^[3] The inhabitants affirmed that they were not Messenians, but a colony led from Athens by Colaenus. It is mentioned by Plutarch as a place which Philopoemen marched to relieve leading to his capture and execution;^[1] but according to the narrative of Livy, Corone was the place towards which Philopoemen marched.^[4]

Its site is located near the modern Vournaria.^[5]^[6]
