What is the story of Trojan Horse?
Fragments are found in Homer's The Iliad (does not cover the Trojan Horse and the defeat) and The Odyssey, Virgil's Aeneid, a host of major and minor references in much later plays, dissertations, speeches, histories, and depictions on pottery. These in combination make up the complete story as we know it, however the sparse and much-distorted sources make the story legend, not history. There is much modern speculation on what actually happened. Apparently, there was a series of piratical raids over several years in the 12th Century BCE, where the coast of the Aegean and islands was looted, and at the end Troy was one of the victims. The rest is speculation and poetry and art, distorted by time and retellings, replete with all the licence to stray from fact and reality given to poets and artists. See related link.

Why was spartacus considered a hero?
Spartacus was a slave who was a gladiator. He was among gladiators who escaped from their gladiatorial schools and sparked a slave rebellion. Up to 20,000 slaves gathered into bands which ravaged the countryside, looted some cities, and defeated Roman army contingents and local militias for two years. Spartacus was one of the leaders of these bands. The rebellion was eventually suppressed with the deployment of eight legions (army corps). This was the third slave rebellion in Roman history and historians call it the Third Servile War (73-71 BC). Both Spartacus and the slave rebellion have been mythologized in fiction. The rebelling slaves are portrayed as freedom fighters fighting against the establishment and to end slavery. However, no account by ancient historians says that the aim of the rebellion was to fight the system or end slavery. They were probably marauding escapees. An ancient historian speculated that they wanted to flee to Gaul. The rebels and their leaders committed many atrocities. As for Spartacus being the champion of liberty who led all of the rebels as portrayed in fiction, this was not the case. He was one of the various leaders of the various bands and we have absolutely minimal information about him.
