Pedieis was one of the towns of ancient Phocis in Greece destroyed by the Persian king Xerxes I during the Greco-Persian Wars. Based on its place in the list given by the historian Herodotus, it is thought to have stood near the Cephissus river, somewhere in the plain between Tithorea and Elateia. Its territory is also recorded as having been sacked by the Boeotians in 395 BCE.
