Brycus, also spelled Brykous, was a town of ancient Greece on the island of Karpathos and a member of the Delian League. Its site has been located near the modern villages of Agia Marina and Avlona, where the British archaeologists Theodore and Mabel Bent conducted early excavations in the spring of 1885, with many of their finds now held at the British Museum.
