The Troad received Greek colonies. Several of its cities are said to have been colonised from the island of Lesbos: Tenedos was settled from Lesbos (Hdt. 1.151.1–2),Achilleion specifically from Mytilene (Strabo 13.1.39), and Assos probably from Methymna (Strabo 13.1.58). There is probably no truth in the supposition that Arisbe was connected with the homonymous settlement on the island of Lesbos, since it is more reliably identified as a Milesian foundation (Strabo 14.1.6). Assos in turn created a sub-colony at Gargara (Strabo 13.1.58).
