Ḫiyawa () or Adanawa () was a Luwian-speaking Neo-Hittite state which existed in southeastern Anatolia in the Iron Age.

==Name== ====== The native Luwian name of the kingdom was (), which bears a strong similarity to the name () used to refer to the Achaeans (, from earlier ), that is to the Mycenaean Greeks, in the Hittite texts of the Bronze Age. The use of this name for the kingdom of Ḫiyawa might have been the result of a migration of Greek populations from Western Anatolia into this region in the early Iron Age.
