Harpagion was a town of the ancient Troad or of Mysia, mentioned by Thucydides, whose surrounding territory was called Harpageia. It lay between Priapus and Cyzicus near the mouth of the river Granicus and belonged to the Delian League, appearing in Athenian tribute records between 448 and 429 BCE. Thucydides records that three days after the Battle of Cynossema, during the Peloponnesian War, the Athenians captured eight ships arriving from Byzantium at Harpagion and Priapus.
