Phanote, also recorded as Phanota or Phanoteia, was a strongly fortified ancient Greek town of Chaonia in the region of Epirus, its location militarily important because it stood in a valley ringed by mountains with only two narrow passes through them. It lay roughly halfway between the sea and the Antigonean passes, which made it significant to the Romans as they advanced from Illyria in 169 BC. Its site is tentatively placed near the modern village of Raveni.
