The [[Troada]] or [[Troad]] (Anglicized; /ˈtroʊˌæd/ or /ˈtroʊəd/; Greek: [[Τρωάδα]], Troáda), or [[Troas]] (/ˈtroʊəs/; Ancient Greek: [[Τρῳάς]], Trōiás or [[Τρωϊάς]], Trōïás), is the historical name of the [[Biga]] Peninsula (modern Turkish: Biga Yarımadası) in the northwestern part of [[Anatolia]], [[Turkey]]. This region now is part of the Çanakkale province of Turkey. Bounded by the Dardanelles to the northwest, by the Aegean Sea to the west and separated from the rest of Anatolia by the massif that forms Mount Ida, the Troad is drained by two main rivers, the [[Scamander]] (Karamenderes) and the Simois, which join at the area containing the ruins of [[Troy]]. | |wketx=The [[Troada]] or [[Troad]] (Anglicized; /ˈtroʊˌæd/ or /ˈtroʊəd/; Greek: [[Τρωάδα]], Troáda), or [[Troas]] (/ˈtroʊəs/; Ancient Greek: [[Τρῳάς]], Trōiás or [[Τρωϊάς]], Trōïás), is the historical name of the [[Biga]] Peninsula (modern Turkish: Biga Yarımadası) in the northwestern part of [[Anatolia]], [[Turkey]].

Mount Ida, called by Homer "many-fountain" ([[πολυπίδαξ]]), sourced several rivers, including Rhesos, Heptaporos, Caresus, Rhodios, [[Granicus]] (Granikos), [[Aesepus]], Skamandros and Simoeis [Iliad 12.18 ff]; these rivers, were deified as a source of life by the Greeks, who depicted them on their coins as river-gods reclining by a stream and holding a reed. | Mount Ida, called by Homer "many-fountain" ([[πολυπίδαξ]]), sourced several rivers, including Rhesos, Heptaporos, Caresus, Rhodios, [[Granicus]] (Granikos), [[Aesepus]], Skamandros and Simoeis [Iliad 12.18 ff]; these rivers, were deified as a source of life by the Greeks, who depicted them on their coins as river-gods reclining by a stream and holding a reed. | ||

Η Τρωάδα, η ομηρική Τρωάς, είναι πανάρχαια ονομασία της περιοχής στην ασιατική πλευρά του Ελλήσποντου, εκεί που ήταν κτισμένη η πόλη της Τροίας. Αργότερα απετέλεσε ΒΔ περιοχή της Μυσίας που κάλυπτε την έκταση από τον Ελλήσποντο και την Προποντίδα προς Βορρά μέχρι τον κόλπο του Αδραμυττίου και που μαζί με τη «Φρυγία του Ελλησπόντου» αποτελούσε τη «Μικρή Μυσία». Κύρια φυσικά γνωρίσματα της περιοχής το όρος Ίδη, ο ποταμός Σκάμανδρος και βέβαια ο Ελλήσποντος. | Η Τρωάδα, η ομηρική Τρωάς, είναι πανάρχαια ονομασία της περιοχής στην ασιατική πλευρά του Ελλήσποντου, εκεί που ήταν κτισμένη η πόλη της Τροίας.
