Cromna or Kromna (Шаблон:Lang-grc), was a town in ancient Corinthia.[1]

Its site (discovered in 1960) is located near the modern Kato Examilia.[2][3][1] Archaeological excavations have revealed tombs with pottery dating from the 7th century BCE.[1]

In the Hellenistic area a wall was built across the isthmus that ran through the settlement and indeed the fact that a gate was located in the wall at this point may explain the growth of the settlement.[4] The grave that was uncovered of an Agathon seemingly from Kromna is plausibly the grave of a defender of the Peloponnese from northern invaders and hence from Kromna in Arkadia.[4]
