Messara was a Greek kingdom on the island of Crete during the time of the Peloponnesian War.

Among these were Gortyn, which at the time of the Peloponnesian War was still a thriving city which served as the capital of the Greek islands. In contrast, Knossos, the ancient capital of the Minoans, laid in ruins by this point.[1]
