Dalassenos (), feminine form Dalassene or Dalassena (Greek: Δαλασσηνή), was a Byzantine aristocratic family prominent in the 11th century.
==Origins and rise to prominence== The family's name derives from their ancestral home, the city of Dalassa, in Cappadocia (modern Talas in eastern Turkey). The ethnic origin of the family is unknown; the Armenian historian Nicholas Adontz identified them as Armenians, but their names are not Armenian, and most scholars hesitate to accept Adontz's suggestion.
