this is VERY sloppy genealogy,
as Dardanus lived at least 800 years after the times-frame for Dara.
But so be it.
Birth Date c. -1519 or -1710
Death Date: -1414 or -1449

"Zerah's son Ethan, very wise, and indeed this line of Judah- Zerah
is the only royal line termed wise, on the other hand led his people north,
from Egypt where he was born, into what is now Asia Minor,
and his son Mahol continued likewise.
Mahol's heir, Darda, reached the western shore,
where on a commanding site; he founded the metropolis of Troy.
The date is 1520 B.C. Here the city flourished for nearly four hundred years.
Darda first saw the straits that separated Europe and Asia and gave them his name, Dardanelles.
Darda also founded a fort here that is named after him.
But the greatest honor is recorded in the Bible,
Solomon was 'wiser than all men; than ... Darda the son of Mahol.'
Thus great were the founder of Troy and the sire of the Trojan race
whose children abide with us still.
Troy fell because her sons had an eye for the refined and beautiful in women.
Her descendants have that exquisite eye still
and are naturally very proud of the accomplishment.

King Darda (Dardanus) Of DARDANIA
Born: Troy, Turkey
Marriage: Princess Batea Of TEUCRI
Died: Abt 1414 B.C., Rameses, Goshen, Egypt
Spouses/Children:
Princess Batea Of TEUCRI
Erichthonius Of TROY+
General Notes:
Death noted on Lewis Ancestry as 1414 BC Hecataeus of Abdera,
a fourth-century B.C. Greek historian,
states that "Now the Egyptians say that also after these events
[the plagues of Exodus] a great number of colonies were SPREAD FROM EGYPT
all over the inhabited world...
They say also that those who set forth with DANAUS,
likewise from Egypt, settled what is practically the oldest city of Greece,
Argos, and that the nations of the COLCHI IN PONTUS
and that of the Jews (remnant of Judah),
which lies BETWEEN ARABIA AND SYRIA,
were founded as colonies by certain emigrants from their country [Egypt];
and this is the reason why it is a long-established institution
among these peoples to CIRCUMCISE their male children,
the custom having been brought over FROM EGYPT.
Even the ATHENIANS, they say, are colonists from SAIS IN EGYPT."
(Quoted from Diodorus of Sicily.
G. H. Oldfather, 1933. Vol I, bks I-II, 1-34, p.91).
An examination of some of the historical clues reveals that there lived in Egypt -- during the time of the bondage of the Israelites
-- a man named DARDA.
According to E. Raymond Capt, "Darda, "the Egyptian," (son of Zarah)
was "DARDANUS," the EGYPTIAN FOUNDER OF TROY."
(Jacob's Pillar. Artisan Sales, Thousand Oaks, CA. 1977. P. 25).
The early migration of Darda is noted in the book How Israel Came to Britain: Actually, groups of Israelites began to migrate away
from the main body BEFORE THE ISRAEL NATION WAS FORMED
-- while, as a people, they were STILL IN BONDAGE IN EGYPT.
One of these groups under the leadership of Calcol,
a prince of the tribe of Judah,
went westward across the Mediterranean eventually settling in Ulster [Ireland].
ANOTHER, under the leadership of DARDANUS, a brother of Calcol,
CROSSED TO ASIA MINOR to found the Kingdom later known as TROY.
-- Canadian British Israel Assn. Windsor, Ontario. P.2.
Darda married Princess Batea Of TEUCRI,
daughter of King Teucer Of The TROJANS and Unknown.
(Princess Batea Of TEUCRI was born in 1327 B.C. in Troy, Turkey.)
Dardanus
The son of Zeus </articles/z/zeus.html> and Electra </articles/e/electra.html>.
He sailed from Samothrace to Troas in a raft made of hides.
He eventually married Batea, the daughter of King Teucer
</articles/t/teucer.html>, who gave him land near Abydos.
There he founded the city of Dardania (the later, ill-fated city of Troy).

This article is about the terms Dardan and Dardanian in classical writings.
For the Shannara character, see Dardan (Shannara).
See also: Dardani
The terms Dardan and Dardanian in classical writings were synonymous
with the term Trojan, the Dardans being Trojans,
an ancient people of the Troad in northwestern Anatolia.
The Dardans derived their name from Dardanus,
the mythical founder of Dardania (Asia minor),
an ancient city in the Troad.
Rule of the Troad was divided between Dardania and Troy.
Homer makes a clear distinction between the Trojans and the Dardanians.[1]
The Royal House of Troy was also divided into two branches,
that of Dardania, and that of Troy (or Ilium).
The House of Dardania was older than the House of Troy,
but Troy later became more powerful than Dardania.
Aeneas is referred to in Virgil's Aeneid interchangeably
as a Dardan or as a Trojan,
but strictly speaking Aeneas was of the Dardanian branch.
Many rulers of Rome claimed descent from Aeneas
and the Houses of Troy and Dardania.
The strait of the Dardanelles was named after the Dardans,
who lived in the region.
The ethnic affinities of the Dardans (and Trojans)
and the nature of their language remain a mystery.
The remains of their material culture reveal close ties with Thracians,
other Anatolian groups, and Greek contact.
Archaeological finds from the Troad dating back to the Chalcolithic period
show striking affinity to archaeological finds known from the same era
in Muntenia and Moldavia, and there are other traces which suggest
close ties between the Troad and the Carpatho-Balkan region of Europe.
Archaeologists in fact have stated that the styles of certain ceramic objects and bone figurines show that these objects were brought into the Troad by Carpatho-Danubian colonists; for example,
certain ceramic objects have been shown to have Cucuteni origins [2].
They are totally unrelated to the later Thraco-Illyrian tribe
of the same name [3].

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Dardania (Asia minor))
Dardania in Greek mythology is the name of a city founded on Mount Ida
by Dardanus from which also the region and the people took their name.
It lay on the Hellespont,
and is the source of the strait's modern name, the Dardanelles.
From Dardanus' grandson Tros the people gained
the additional name of Trojans and the region gained
the additional name Troad. Tros' son Ilus
subsequently founded a further city called Ilion (in Latin Ilium)
down on the plain,
the city now more commonly called Troy, and the kingdom was split between Ilium and Dardania.
Dardania has also been defined as "a district of the Troad, lying along the Hellespont, southwest of Abydos, and adjacent to the territory of Ilium. Its people (Dardani) appear in the Trojan War under Aeneas, in close alliance with the Trojans, with whose name their own is often interchanged, especially by the Roman poets."[1]

In Greek mythology, Dardanus (Greek: Δάρδανος, English translation: "burned up",
from the verb δαρδάπτω (dardapto) to wear, to slay, to burn up)
[1] was a son of Zeus and Electra, daughter of Atlas,
and founder of the city of Dardania on Mount Ida in the Troad.
Dionysius of Halicarnassus (1.61–62) states that Dardanus' original home
was in Arcadia where Dardanus and his elder brother Iasus
(elsewhere more commonly called Iasion) reigned as kings following Atlas.
Dardanus married Chryse daughter of Pallas by whom he fathered two sons:
Idaeus and Dymas.
When a great flood occurred, the survivors,
who were living on mountains that had now become islands,
split into two groups:
one group remained and took Deimas as king while the other sailed away,
eventually settling in the island of Samothrace.
There Iasus (Iasion) was slain by Zeus for lying with Demeter.
Dardanus and his people found the land poor and so most of them set sail for Asia.
However another account by Virgil in his Aeneid (3.163f),
has Aeneas in a dream learn from his ancestral Penates
that "Dardanus and Father Iasius" and the Penates themselves
originally came from Hesperia which was afterward renamed as Italy.
This tradition holds that Dardanus was a Tyrrhenian prince,
and that his mother Electra was married to Corythus, king of Tarquinia
(Aeneid 7.195-242; 8. 596 ss. ; 9. 10; Servio, ad Vergilium, Aeneidos, 9.10).
Other accounts make no mention of Arcadia or Hesperia,
though they sometimes mention a flood and speak of Dardanus sailing
on a hide-raft (as part of the flood story?)
from Samothrace to the Troad near Abydos.
All accounts agree that Dardanus came to the Troad from Samothrace
and was there welcomed by King Teucer and that Dardanus married Batea
the daughter of Teucer.
(Dionysius mentions that Dardanus' first wife Chryse had died.)
Dardanus received land on Mount Ida from his father-in-law.
There Dardanus founded the city of Dardania.
Dardanus' children by Batea were Ilus, Erichthonius and Idaea.
According to Dionysius of Halicarnassus (1.50.3),
Dardanus also had a son named Zacynthus by Bataea
and this Zacynthus was the first settler on the island afterwards called Zacynthus.
Dionysius also says (1.61.4) that Dardanus's son Idaeus gave his name
to the Idaean mountains, that is Mount Ida,
where Idaeus built a temple to the Mother of the Gods (that is to Cybele)
and instituted mysteries and ceremonies still observed in Phrygia
in Dionysius's time.
There are operas on the subject of Dardanus by Jean-Philippe Rameau (1739), Carl Stamitz (1770) and Antonio Sacchini (1784).

Dardanus founded a city in the region that later was called the Troad,
and lived there with his family until the death of his father-in-law,
upon which he became king of the whole land and called it Dardania after himself.
According to some, Batia was Dardanus's second wife,
whom he married after the death of his first wife Chryse.
His sons by her were Idaeus and Deimas.
The latter stayed in Arcadia , whence they come
(as it is said that Atlas was king of Arcadia ),
but Idaeus emigrated with Dardanus, first to Samothrace,
and later to Phrygia , where Mount Ida was called after him
http://homepage.mac.com/cparada/GML/Troy.html --------------------
http://www.ucg.org/brp/materials/throne/appendices/ap3.html Biblical basis for Darda
Persistent secular legends from Greece and Rome identify Dara as Dardanus,
founder of ancient Troy.[1]
At least one translation of the Antiquities of Flavius Josephus,
in mentioning King Solomon as being wiser than two men named Calcol
and Dara (Darda), gives Dara's name as "Dardanos."
So perhaps Dara and Dardanus were regarded as the same man during the first century AD.[2]
As a further complication, the Greek poet Homer says
that Dardanus was a son (or descendant) of Zeus, the chief of the Greek gods.[3],
The Roman and Greek legends say that Zeus (called Jupiter in Latin)
was a son of Saturn who was also called Kronus.
Writing of the Greek gods, Sanchuniathon, a Phoenician historian,
says that "Kronus, whom the Phoenicians called Israel, had a son Jehud."[4]
From the above, some would cite Homer and Sanchuniathon as testifying
that Dardanus (who founded the Trojan kingdom)
was a descendant of Jehud (Judah) whose father was Israel.
However, this deduction ignores the repeated custom that each Greek city
followed as the cult of Zeus spread to it:
they would identify their own municipal god-founder as Zeus
and thus subsume their municipal cult into the cult of Zeus.
Therefore no identification of Zeus with Judah could possibly be conclusive.
In any event the Bible gives no direct evidence that the Zarhites,
or any branches of that clan, abandoned the forty-year march
of the Israelites and traveled to the Aegean Sea or the Black Sea
(called the Euxine or Friendly Sea in those days) to found their own kingdoms.
That at least some Hebrew manuscripts, including the Westminster Leningrad Codex, lack 1_Kings 4:20-34 , including the key verse that spells the name of Dara as "Darda", might or might not be significant. --------------------
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dardanus --------------------
The Trojans were descendants of Atlas. Dardanus 1, son of Electra 3,
daughter of Atlas, is at the beginning of the house of Troy,
for Dardanus 1 is father of Erichthonius 1, father of Tros 1
(after whom the Trojans are called),
father of Ilus 2 (founder of Ilium, that is, Troy),
father of Laomedon 1, father of Priam 1, who was king when the city was destroyed.
