Assos

Assos was a Greek city on the coast of the Troad in northwestern Asia Minor (modern Behramkale, Turkey), near the territory of Atarneus ruled by Aristotle's patron Hermias. After leaving Plato's Academy, Aristotle spent several years at Assos, where he taught and married before moving on to Lesbos.
