The Trojan War is traditionally said to have started around the 12th or 13th century BCE, according to ancient Greek sources. It was sparked by the abduction of Helen, the wife of the Spartan king Menelaus, by Paris, a prince of Troy. This act of betrayal led to a coalition of Greek city-states, led by Agamemnon, launching an expedition to retrieve Helen and lay siege to Troy. The war is depicted in various ancient texts, most notably Homer's "Iliad."
