After the women burn the ships only four remain in repairable state. This is why Aeneas has to leave the old, the infirm, and the women on Sicily. (Leaving the women behind on Sicily is necessary to the story, since it makes it obligatory for the Trojans to marry local girls when the get to Lavinum later on).
But there is a problem with the story at this point. Four ships were raced earlier in this section, as part of the games to commemorate the first anniversary of Anchises' death. One of the ships was badly damaged in the race, but there seems no obvious way of explaining how the other three got back to the main berth (on the beach) so that the women could burn them.
If Vergil had lived long enough to complete the poem, he might have rectified minor conundrums like this one.
Vergil left the Aeneid incomplete at his death in 19 BC. He seems to have been working on the poem for at least ten years. Vergil left instructions that the poem should be destroyed if he died before it was finished. Luckily his executors ignored this codicil.
None. They all were killed, but one man was left on the island of the cyclopes, who is mentioned in the Aeneid.
The Trojan Horse doesn't appear in the Iliad. The tale we are most familiar with comes from Virgil's Aeneid, and those particular events take place in between Homer's Iliad and the follow-up Odyssey.After 10 years of seige and war, and with the best warriors on both sides slain, the Greeks and Trojans were essentially at a stalemate. Odysseus comes up with the idea of taking some of the timbers from their wrecked ships and building a giant horse. A single soldier would be "left behind" to inform the Tojans of the meaning. Sinon was the Greek who volunteered.Upon opening the gates, the Trojans questions Sinon, who informed them that the horse was left as a gift to Athena for the desecration of one of her temples by the Greeks. Only Laocoon guessed the ruse and famously warned "I fear the Danaans (Greeks), even bearing gifts". For this, Poseidon sent serpents to strangle him and his sons.Inside the belly, according to Virgil, were 30 soldiers, and two spies in the head to see what was happening. That night, when Troy slept, Odysseus and his men crept toward the gate, killed the night guard and opened the gates to the waiting Greek army. Troy was sacked and burned and it's women taken as slaves. Only a few Trojans escaped, under the leadership of Aeneas.
Women in Athens were controlled by their father until they were married, but once they were married their spouse was in charge of them. They were in charge of housework, such as cleaning and cooking, and usually only left the house for religious duties.
It was the army of Athens and its ally Plataia. They waited until the Persians were loading their cavalry on ships and attacked the inferior Persian infantry left without their cavalry support.

They weren't. They were the USS Monitor and the CSS Virginia. The CSS Virginia was built from the hull of the USS Merrimac, which was sunk and burned by the Union when they left the shipyard.
