In Greek mythology, Assaracus (; Ancient Greek: Ἀσσάρακος Assarakos) was a king of Dardania.
== Family == Assaracus was the second son of Tros, King of Dardania by his wife Callirhoe, daughter of Scamander, or Acallaris, daughter of Eumedes. He was the brother of Ilus, Ganymede, Cleopatra and possibly of Cleomestra. Assaracus married Hieromneme, daughter of Simoeis; others say his wife was Clytodora, daughter of Laomedon. By either of them, he became the father of his son and heir Capys.
