Best Answer

This is an extremely general question but it is based on everything from mythology to real life events. There are depictions of the Trjoan war, there are depictions of funeral rituals. There is alot of art and you'd have to compare events depicted to ancient sources in order to determine which are accurate and which are phony. Art may have been commissioned by aristocrats and therefore be of false events.
