Cynossema (Шаблон:Lang-grc[1] and Cynosemon (Κυνόσημον),[2] meaning Dog's Tomb, was a promontory on the eastern coast of the Thracian Chersonesus, near the town of Madytus. It was near the modern town of Kilidülbahir.[3]
According to the legend it took its name ("Dog's Tomb") from the fact that Hecuba was changed into a dog and her tomb was there.[4]
The naval Battle of Cynossema took place there in 411 BC during the Peloponnesian War.[5]
