470 Kilia /ˈkɪliə/ (1901 GJ) is a 27 km main-belt asteroid discovered on 21 April 1901 by Luigi Carnera at Heidelberg, the 470th asteroid discovered. It was one of the 16 asteroid discoveries made by Carnera.

Photometric observations of this asteroid in 2021 were used to produce a light curve showing a rotation period of 297.655±0.012 h with a brightness amplitude of 0.40±0.02 in magnitude.
