Zeleia (Ancient Greek : Ζέλεια ) was a town of the ancient Troad , at the foot of Mount Ida and on the banks of the river Aesepus (both located in Turkey ), at a distance of 80 stadia from its mouth.[1] [2] Homer in the Trojan Battle Order in the Iliad [3] Trojan War , led by Pandarus , son of Lycaon (the latter Lycaon not to be confused with Lycaon, son of Priam . It is later related that the people of Zeleia are "Lycians", though the Zeleians are distinct from the Lycians who come from Lycia in southwestern Asia Minor , led by Sarpedon and Glaucus .
Arrian mentions it as the headquarters of the Persian army before the Battle of the Granicus , in May 334 BCE, where the Persian satraps held a council at Zeleia where they discussed how best to confront Alexander the Great .[4] [1]
Arthmios (Ancient Greek : Ἄρθμιος , Aryan-Luvian meaning truly mine or my perfect one ) of Zeleia together with his family, was declared an outlaw in the territory of Athens and her allies, because he had brought the gold from Persian Empire into Peloponnese .[5] Ancient Greek : Νικαγόρας ) of Zeleia, was a tyrant of Zeleia.[6]
The site of ancient Zeleia is located near Sarıköy , Balıkesir , Turkey .[7] [8]
