One account of Dardanus has him sailing on a hide-raft (as part of the Flood story?) from Samothrace to Troad. All accounts agree that Dardanus came to Troad from Samothrace and, upon arrival, was welcomed by King Teucer and that Dardanus married Batea, the daughter of Teucer. (Dionysius mentions that Dardanus' first wife, Chryse, by the way, had drowned in the Flood.) Dardanus received land on Mount Ida from his father-in-law. There Dardanus founded the city of Dardania.

Both Aeneas and Brutus of Troy were Dardanus's direct descendants of Dardanus.
