From Tenedos to Bozcaada
Dossier in brief
Place, time and memory in one narrative.
The short sea crossing from Geyikli to Bozcaada opens onto Tenedos as Homer names it with Apollo and Virgil makes it a visible hiding shore; today's harbour and the island's quieter southern coves answer that long textual memory in their own rhythms.

Narrative
Homer names Tenedos in Apollo's sphere during Chryses' prayer. Virgil later makes the island a visible shore where the Greek fleet hides and from which it returns at night.
Sequence
Read the ancient texts as distinct literary uses of an island name, then return to today's ferry crossing and the southern-coast access layer.
Stops
The town harbour is a modern access anchor. Sulubahçe is a current cove between Ayazma and Habbele with no day-use facility stated by the local authority.
