Zeleia (Ζέλεια) is the name of an ancient town or city according to the Iliad which was allied to Troy. It appears to have been located in the Troad and to have been inhabited by Trojans. Says Homer: They who lived in Zeleia below the foot of Mount Ida who drank the dark water of Aesepus Trojans. (Iliad 2.824). Zeleia led a force of warriors to aid Troy during the Trojan War led by Pandarus son of Lycaon.
