Tzanata (Greek: Τζανάτα) is an inland village in the southeast of Kefalonia, one of the Ionian Islands of Greece.

Along with the neighbouring villages of Agia Eirini and Kampitsata, it is situated in a fertile plain south of the Atros hill.

A mineral water spring (vrysi) fed from the ‘bottomless’ Avithos lake at Agios Nikolaos feeds a fountain in the plane tree sheltered square where the village festivals, served by souvlaki stalls and the adjacent taverna, are held in the summer months.

In 1991 archaeologist Lazaros Kolonas, excavating in the Broutzi area of Tzanata, discovered a tholos (beehive) tomb from the Mycenaean period measuring 6.80 meters in diameter.

[2] Some claim that it is the burial place of Odysseus; others believe it to be the tomb of earlier royalty, circa 1400 BC.
