'''Koutali''' (Turkish ''Ekinlik'') is an island on the [[Sea of Marmara]] (Propontis)off the coast of [[Asia Minor]].
Originally (7th Century BC) Koutali and the surrounding islands were colonised by settlers from [[Miletus]]. In [[Byzantine Empire|Byzantine]] times the islands were known for the white marble they produced which was used in many churches built at that time.
