Dascylium: capital of the Persian satraps of Hellespontine Phrygia, modern The  town is located on a hill called Hisartepe, which lies on the shores of Manyas Lake. According to the ancient authors the name of the city comes from a Lydian noble Daskylos, who was sent out from Lydia. Daskylos was said to be father of the later Lydian King Gyges.

:And Agesilaus, being now assured that Otys was eager, immediately manned a trireme and ordered Callias the Lacedaemonian to fetch the girl, while he set off himself for Dascyleium, the place where the palace of Pharnabazus was situated, and round about it were many large villages, stored with provisions in abundance, and splendid wild animals, some of1 them in enclosed parks, others in open spaces."1
