		Troy—also called Ilium, Ilion, or Ilios—is a Phrygian city in northwestern Asia Minor in the region called the Troad.
		At the time of the Trojan War, Troy was a well-walled city, with broad streets and beautiful palaces.
		Dardanus 1 founded a city in the region that later was called the Troad, and lived there with his family until the death of his father-in-law, upon which he became king of the whole land and called it Dardania after himself.

	Troy, Asia Minor - LoveToKnow 1911
		The Troad is bounded on the N. by the Hellespont and the westernmost part of the Propontis, on the W. by the Aegean Sea and on the S. by the Gulf of Adramyttium.
		In the widest acceptation, the Troad was identified with the whole of western and south-western Mysia, from the Aesepus, which flows into the Propontis, a little west of Cyzicus, to the Caicus, which flows into the Aegean south of Atarneus.
		The chief Greek towns in the Troad were Ilium in the north, Assus in the south and Alexandria Troas in the west.

		THE Troad, or the land of Troy, the northwestern promontory of Asia Minor.
		In the widest acceptation, the Troad was identified with the whole of western and southwestern Mysia, from the Aesepus, which flows into the Propontis, a little west of Cyzicus, to the Caicus, which flows into the Aegean south of Atarneus.
		The Troad is, indeed, a country highly favoured by nature-with its fertile plains and valleys, abundantly and continually irrigated from Ida, its numerous streams, its fine west seaboard and the beauty of its scenerv.

	The Troad: rendezvous or procession?
		And with the usual interpretation of events, it is difficult to see why he should have been so anxious about the safety of Titus.
		He was therefore anxious about his safety and wondered whether he had got stuck in the Troad or Macedonia.
		So when he travelled to the Troad and did not find him there, he knew that Titus was ahead of him so he pushed on to Macedonia.

	Mysia
		But its precise limits are difficult to assign, the Phrygian frontier being vague and fluctuating, while in the north-west the Troad[?] was sometimes included in Mysia, sometimes not.
		The chief physical features of Mysia (considered apart from that of the Troad) are the two mountain-chains, Olympus (7600 ft.) in the north and Temnus[?] in the south, which for some distance separates Mysia from Lydia, and is afterwards prolonged through Mysia to the neighbourhood of the Gulf of Adramyttium[?].
		The only considerable rivers are the Macestus[?] and its tributary the Rhyndacus[?] in the nnrthern part of the province, both of which rise in Phrygia, and, after diverging widely through Mysia, unite their waters below the lake of Apollonia[?] about 15 m.

		The Troas (Troad; see also List of traditional Greek place names) is an ancient region in the northwestern part of Anatolia, bounded by the Hellespont to the northwest, the Aegean Sea to the west, and separated from the rest of Anatolia by the massif that forms Mount Ida.

	Greece, A History of Ancient Greece, Troy (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The Troad (Greek Troias; "Land of Troy") is the district formed by the northwestern projection of Asia Minor into the Aegean Sea.
		At the end of each period when a settlement was destroyed (usually by fire, or earthquake, or both), the survivors, rather than clear the wreckage down to the floors, merely leveled it out and then built new houses upon it.
		The nine major periods of ancient Troy are labeled I to IX, starting from the bottom with the oldest settlement, Troy I. In periods I to VII Troy was a fortified stronghold that served as the capital of the Troad and the residence of a king, his family, officials, advisers, retinue, and slaves.

		Rule of the Troad was divided between Dardania and Troy.
		Archaeological finds from the Troad dating back to the Chalcolithic period show striking affinity to archaeological finds known from the same era in Muntenia and Moldavia, and there are other traces which suggest close ties between the Troad and the Carpatho-Balkan region of Europe.
		Archaeologists in fact have stated that the styles of certain ceramic objects and bone figurines show that these objects were brought into the Troad by Carpatho-Danubian colonists; for example, certain ceramic objects have been shown to have Cucuteni origins [1].

	Assos
		omer wrote that the people who lived on the southern shores of Troad were Lelegians and that they made their living as seamen and pirates during the years of the Trojan wars.
		Yet, it remained the fate of Troad and Mysia to pass from one hand to another in the post-Alexandrian period during the struggles among his successors.
		On the other hand a part of the intramural area which did not face the sea, to the north of the acropolis, was rather used as a quarry to obtain construction material and not occupied perhaps until the last century.

	Memnon
		In fact, the Persians needed his brother Mentor to defend the Troad (the northwest of modern Turkey), and gave him land in that region.
		Not much later, Mentor was made Persian supreme commander in the West and married Barsine, the daughter of the satrap of Hellespontine Phrygia, Artabazus, who married a sister of the Rhodians.
		He married Barsine -it was his second marriage- and expected to be appointed supreme commander in the West, but neither Artaxerxes III, nor Artaxerxes IV (338-336) nor Darius III Codommanus (336-330) dared to give the former rebel this prestigious job.

		Nevertheless, production of amphoras in the general region of the Troad, even during this period, implies the presence of an agricultural surplus requiring such jars for storage and export.
		Perhaps this was caused by Persian campaigns in the Troad in the late sixth and early fifth centuries.
		The greater prosperity may be attributed to the development of Persian wealth in the region, combined with the Troad’s increased role as a mediator between the Aegean and Anatolia.

		A logical candidate for the Troad is England, where the wide bay of the Wash is ideally suited to host a large fleet.
		Homer mentions nine rivers in the Trojan plain, and many others elsewhere in the Troad but until now it was always thought that these names were the fruit of the poet's imagination, in particular because there are far too many of them for the small plain of Hissarlik.

	The Trojan Origins of European Royalty!
		The legends claim that the oldest town in the land of Troy (the Troad) was founded by Teucer, who was a son of the Scamander (a stream of Crete, according to John Tzetzes, the 12th century Byzantine poet and grammarian) and the nymph Idaea.
		After he arrived in the Troad, Dardanus received a grant of land from Teucer and married his daughter Batea, shortly thereafter founding the city of DARDANIA at the foot of MOUNT IDA. On the death of Teucer, Dardanus succeeded him as king, and called the whole land DARDANIA.
		By the first century A.D. the memory of the correct location of Troy was lost to the ages, and an academic dispute arose in A.D. 160 with Demetrius of Scepsis claiming the mound of Hissarlik to be the site.

	Dardanus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Greek mythology, Dardanus (Greek Δάρδανος "burner up "greek verb δαρδάπτω "dardapto" to wear,to slay,to burn) was a son of Zeus and Electra, daughter of Atlas, and founder of the city of Dardania on Mount Ida in the Troad.
		Other accounts make no mention of Arcadia or Hesperia, though they sometimes mention a flood and speak of Dardanus sailing on a hide-raft (as part of the flood story?) from Samothrace to the Troad near Abydos.
		All accounts agree that Dardanus came to the Troad from Samothrace and was there welcomed by King Teucer and that Dardanus married Batea the daughter of Teucer.
