Tynteni, or Tyntenoi (Ancient Greek: Τυντενοί) was the name of an Illyrian tribe,[1][2] living in villages, or of a town named Tynte, that may be the same[3]asDaton, a Greek[4] colony in Thrace. The Tynteni and Tynte are only attested in coins. If an actual tribe, the Tynteni were located north[5] of lake Ohrid. Their coins, whose minting stops in the early 5th century BC,[6] have similarities of those of Ichnae, that was in the archaic age Paeonian but later became Greek. The coin legend is Greek: ΤΥΝΤΕΝΟΝ.
The Atintani seem to have originated[7] from the obscure Tynteni.
