Gondwana eller Gondwanaland var den södra superkontinent som omfattade de landmassor vi i dag kallar Antarktis, Sydamerika, Afrika, Arabiska halvön, Madagaskar, Indien, Australien, Nya Guinea, Nya Zeeland och Nya Kaledonien. De övriga kontinenterna, Nordamerika och Eurasien var samlade i superkontinenten Laurasien. Tillsammans bildade Gondwana och Laurasien superkontinenten Pangaea. För cirka 200 miljoner år sedan började Gondwana och Laurasien driva ifrån varandra.
