Myonessus (Myonessos) was a town of ancient Ionia near Teos and Lebedus, set on a promontory of the same name. An island offshore, also called Myonessus, is noted for the naval battle fought there in 190 BCE between the Romans and Antiochus the Great. While the island is identified with the modern Cıfıtkalesi Islet, the site of the ancient town itself remains unlocated.
