the myth has been exaggerated over time, it was more of a Trojan poney, most likely to help on the farm
The date when the Greeks used the Trojan horse to enter inside the Trojan walls had been calculated for the first time using an eclipse mentioned in the stories of Homer. The date was 1188 B.C.
Legend has it that he suicided after shaming himself while temporarily deranged, after Odysseus won a competition between them for the dead Achilles' armour. Following the chronology of his forbears, he would have been dead by the time of the Trojan War. The bards introduced him into their story of the Trojan War to have yet another great hero.
Other peoples were moving into Greece ad taking over from the Achaeans (Greeks), so you wonder what the Greeks were doing over in Asia Minor looting and trying to capture Troy, when their homelands were copping the same in their absence. The Trojan War is a traditional story, and not necessarily correct in time and location.
No, the Minoan era was replaced about 1400 BCE by the Mycenaean culture, which itself was in decline by the time of the Trojan War (about 1200 BCE by incoming peoples - Dorian Greeks and the Sea Peoples.

The Greeks built it during the Trojan War. The Trojan war was fought between the Greeks and the Trojans of the city of Troy located in Asia Minor in Today's country of Turkey. the war started when the Troyan army stolen a Greecian maid named Helen. (Helen of Troy) The Greeks declared war and it lasted a long time. Helen's beauty was so great it is said that her face launched a thousand ships. The Greeks surrounded the city and lay siege to it for years. In desparation they built a large wooden horse and rolled it to the city gates as a gift to the people of Troy or so the Trojans believed. Hundreds of Greek soldiers were hidden inside. When the Trojan's rolled it into their city gates they thought they won a great vistory because they could no longer see the Greek army. After they got drunken celebrating they slept during the night. The Greeks came out of the horse and slew the Trojan army, took the city and won the war. The saying "becareful of accepting gifts from Greeks" has its roots in this story. Troy was thought a myth and Greevian author/story teller Homer wrote of the Trojan War and this incident. Through his writings the city of Troy was discovered.
Soldiers have worn body armour since the time of the ancient Greeks. It protects parts of the soldier's body from attacks with swords, pikes and other similar weapons. Indeed modern soldiers' combat suits still often contain armour. So it only makes sense that Macbeth would put armour on.
