What 2 ways in which the siege during the Trojan war could have ended?
Everyone died
Did they use catapults in the Trojan War?
The reason the Greeks could not capture walled Troy is that they did not have the siege engines developed in later times.
In a paragraph describe the Trojan war?
The Trojan war is the war conducted by Agamemnon the king of Myceanae to restore to his brother Menelaus his ravished wife the famous Helen. The Siege will last 10 years that will end in many spectacular skirmishes between the Trojan and Greek Armies, the death of many celebrated heroes and finally the Trojan horse trick by Ulysses, devised as a plan to infiltrate the city as its defenses made it seem impregnable.
What were the opponents of the Trojan war?
The Greeks of Sparta. Paris, Prince of Troy, stole immortal Helen of Sparta from her father, Menelaus. Menelaus wanted his (adopted, in a way) daughter back. The Greeks stormed Troy, where Paris and Helen were living together. That 10-year siege, called the Trojan war, involved the god Ares, the goddesses Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite, and the famous Trojan horse.
How did Odysseus enable the Greeks to conquer Troy after ten years of siege?
They made a giant wooden horse (the Trojan horse) and the Greeks got inside it. They then left it at the gates of Troy. Thinking it was a gift or a peace offering, the Trojans took the horse inside their walls and celebrated. By night the Trojans were drunk from their party and the Greeks came out, opened the gates for their comrades, and they overthrew the Trojans.

The Iliad is about what?
The Iliad is about a young sheperd named Paris that really was the son of King Priam ruler of Troy that went to Sparta and stole King Menelaus' wife Helen and the war that followed.Wrong!!!That is the Trojan WarThe Illiad is about the siege of Troy.when he believed kept thinking positivlyThe Illiad is about the siege of Troy.
What might have happened if the Trojans have overpowered the Greek soldiers as they emerged from the wooden horse?
It is not clear. Menelaus was presumably inside the Trojan Horse, so it is possible that--if the Trojans had managed to kill the Greeks inside the horse-- the war would have ended since the whole point of the war was to get Helen (his wife) back. However, it is likely that Agamemnon (his brother) would have continued the war in the name of vengeance. OR --- The Trojan Horse was a last ditch attempt because the Greeks did not have a siege train and could not breach the walls. Nor were they strong enough to starve the city out. Having successfully ended their looting expedition of the coast of the Aegean Sea, which was their object, and with now no hope of capturing the richest prize Troy, they would have gone home to enjoy their loot and slaves.
