Anthia (Greek: Άνθεια) is a village and a community in the southern part of the Evros regional unit in Greece. Antheia is located near the old Greek National Road 2 between Alexandroupoli and Feres. It is 10 km east of the centre of Alexandroupoli. Antheia was the seat of the municipality of Traianoupoli, and a municipal district within that municipality.

Οι οικισμοί του νότιου Έβρου: το Τυχερό, το Τάρσιο, ο Πυρόλιθος, οι Φέρες, ο Πέπλος, οι Κήποι, το Αρδάνιο και τα Άνθεια, δημιουργήθηκαν με την μετανάστευση των Αρβανιτών από την Ανατολική Θράκη το 1923. Προήλθαν κυρίως από τους κατοίκους των χωριών Ιμπρίκ Τεπέ και Σουλτάνκιοϊ (βλ. Χάρτη 8).
