Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Marpessos (Ancient Greek: Μάρπησσος) was a settlement in the middle Skamander valley of the Troad region of Anatolia. The settlement's name is also spelled Μαρμησσός, Μαρμισσός, Μερμησσός in ancient sources. It was known in Classical antiquity primarily as the birthplace of the Hellespontine Sibyl Herophile. Its site has been located at Dam Dere approximately 2 km SE of the village of Zerdalilik in the Bayramiç district of Çanakkale Province in Turkey. Despite the similarity of its name and its location on Mount Ida, the settlement is apparently unrelated to the mythological figure Marpessa and her husband Idas. It should likewise not be confused with the Mount Marpessa on Paros.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Marpessos war eine kleine antike griechische Stadt (oder Dorf) in der kleinasiatischen Landschaft Troas am Hellespont. Sie lag nahe bei Gergis am Ida-Gebirge, in der Region um das heutige Intepe an den Dardanellen im Nordwesten der heutigen Türkei. Gelegentlich wird es in der antiken Literatur auch als Marmessos bezeichnet.
