Milet (grec antic: Μίλητος) fou una ciutat de Jònia, la principal de la regió, a la costa occidental d'Anatòlia, a prop de la desembocadura del riu Meandre a l'antiga Caria.^[1]^[2] Era situada a l'extrem nord d'una península que, al sud-oest, formava el golf Làtmic amb el puig Grion. Les seves ruïnes es troben a prop del modern poble de Balat, a la província d'Aydın, Turquia. Abans de la invasió persa a mitjan segle vi aC, Milet era considerat una de les ciutats gregues més grans i riques.^[3]^[4]

Les proves del primer assentament al lloc han estat inaccessibles per l’augment del nivell del mar i la deposició de sediments del Meandre, que fan que les restes de Milet es trobin avui terra endins, quan antigament era un port molt actiu. El lloc es va anomenar Milet per un lloc a Creta.
