Scientists have found artifacts, etc. that show evidence of a war between Troy and Greece - though this is not so surprising, since Troy is now modern-day Turkey. However, elements of the war from Homer's Iliad, such as Achilles being invulnerable (except for his heel) and the war being started because of a golden apple, are probably not true.
