Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Ancon or Ankon (Ancient Greek: Ἀγκών) was a populated place of ancient Pontus, on the Black Sea and on the coast road east of Amisus. It was on a headland and bay both of the same name. It is mentioned by Gaius Valerius Flaccus in his Argonautica, after the Iris, as if it were east of the mouth of that river. Apollonius Rhodius simply speaks of it as a headland.

Summary from Türkçe / Turkish Wikipedia (trwiki)

Aynı adı taşıyan bir burun ve koy üzerinde bulunuyordu. Gaius Valerius Flaccus tarafından Argonautica'sında, Iris'ten (Yeşilırmak) sonra, o nehrin ağzının doğusundaymış gibi bahsedilir. Apollonius Rhodius ise buradan sadece bir burun olarak bahseder.
