Satartia is a village in Yazoo County, Mississippi. Per the 2020 Census, the population was 41, Mississippi's smallest incorporated municipality by population.

Located on the east bank of the Yazoo River, Satartia was once a thriving river port, and is one of the oldest non-Native settlements in Yazoo County.

Satartia is a Choctaw word meaning "pumpkin place", likely due to the small gourds that grow in the area. In the early 1800s, Satartia was a busy shipping point from which cotton was transported by steamboat to New Orleans along the Yazoo River.

During the Civil War, General Grant sailed a gunboat from Vicksburg and captured the village; the Wilson House on Plum Street was used as his headquarters during the occupation. The war also produced the "Satartia Rifles", of the 12th Mississippi Infantry Regiment, a well-regarded Confederate company and recruitment group.

In February 2020, a pressurized pipeline owned by Denbury Resources carrying liquid carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide ruptured "less than half a mile" from Satartia. First responders evacuated Satartia's 42 residents, and approximately 250 others living near Satartia. In 2022, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration recommended a civil penalty of $3,866,734 against Denbury Resources.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 0.2 square miles (0.52 km), all land.
