In the Aeneid why do the Trojans assume that the Greeks have sailed for home?

In Book II of the Aeneid the Trojans notice that the Greek ships have gone from the beach in front of Troy. In fact the Greeks have only moved their navy around the headland to Tenedos - but the Trojans don't know this. (Vergil makes it clear that the Trojans are ready to believe that the Greeks are gone, because that is what they want to believe). The Trojans leave the city and walk around the abandoned Greek camp. They find the Wooden Horse, and they capture Sinon - a Greek warrior who claims to have deserted the Greek army. Sinon confirms that the Greeks have abandoned the siege - but he is a carefully planted spy. (Sinon will later be the one who opens the horse once it is within Troy's walls).

Who was Sinon What was his role in the greek tragedy?

Sinon, a son of Aesimus, was a Greek warrior during the Trojan War. He pretended he had deserted the Greeks and, as a Trojan captive, told the Trojans that the wooden horse the Greeks had left was intended as a gift to the gods to ensue their safe voyage home. He told them that the horse was made so big that the Trojans would not be able to move it into their city, because if they did they would be invincible to later Greek invasion. His story convinced the Trojans. The Trojans brought the Trojan Horse into their city. Inside the horse were Greek soldiers, who, as night fell, disembarked from the horse and opened the gates of Troy, thus sealing the fate of Troy. (From Wikipedia) a


Why in computing a Trojan is called a Trojan when in reality it should be called a greek. as it was the greeks that hid inside the Trojan horse?

When the Greeks left the wooden horse outside Troy they also left the spy Sinon to be captured by the Trojan forces. Sinon explained to the Trojans that the horse was a charm to get the Greek ships home safely, and that if the Trojans could take the horse inside their city it would protect Troy from future Greek attack. The idea was that the Trojan's claimed the horse as a gift, hoping to benefit from it; but this was what led to the fall of their city. A virus which describes itself as an app plays the same trick: it looks like a gift, but in fact is a poison. So Trojan is the correct term.

In the Aeneid how is the death of Laocoon interpreted?

Laocoon begs the other Trojans to see the wooden horse as an enemy to the Trojans, asking them if wily Ulysses (Odysseus) would really just leave their shores without an attempt to sack the city. Sinon, a member of the Greeks recently captured in Trojan hands claims the horse is really a monument to Minerva. When Laocoon throws his spear at the wooden horse, he therefore is interpreted as "angering" Minerva, who then sends twin serpents to kill Laocoon's two sons and finally himself. The rest of the Trojans, not wanting to anger Minerva, drag the horse into their city, sealing their fate and allowing the city to be sacked that same mnight.


What convinces the Trojans to bring the horse into the city?

In The Aeneid, Aeneas recounts his story of Troy to Dido. He tells her that Sinon, a Greek, helped to convince the Trojans to bring the horse into the city by telling them that it was made in honor of Minerva. Laocoon, the Trojan priest, hurled a spear at the horse and he and his two sons were eaten by serpents that rose out of the sea. The Trojans see this as Minerva's protection of the horse and believing it was a holy object, brought it into the city.
