Yes. They capped their 10-year looting expedition in Asia Minor with the richest prize of Troy, and took it all home, including 'much-manned Helen' and the property she stole from her husband Menelaos King of Sparta when she ran off with Paris.

Odysseus took a bit longer to get home than the others, managing to lose his way in the central Mediterranean for a further decade.

King Agamemnon of Argos didn't last long as his wife was so put out by his return that sh got her boyfriend to bump him off.

Some thought they would live happily ever after on the loot, but the Dorian Greeks and the Sea Peoples moved in and looted their world shortly thereafter.
