Trojan War - 12th Century BCE. Battle of Marathon - 5th Century BCE. Don't know anyone who lived that long.
The battle of marathon started in 490 BCE, September. I'm not sure but i think it ended the same day. I hope it helped you
The Battle of Marathon in 490 BCE was where Athens fought off the Persian King Darius. The Persians kept invading Greece for personal gain, and eventually Greece had enough and attacked the Persians back.
This war was faught by the Greeks against the Persian Army because they wanted to conquer Athens and all of Greece. The war a Marathon was under the leadership of General Miltiades, who resisted and won the battle over the Persians. It is 26 miles from Marathon to Athens and thus the beginnings of the real marathons we enjoy today created by the one man who reached Athens stating that the Persian fllet was coming and they fought them back into the sea.
