The Greeks constructed the wooden horse, known as the Trojan Horse, as a cunning strategy to infiltrate the city of Troy during the Trojan War. They presented it as a gift to the Trojans to signify their withdrawal, while secretly hiding soldiers inside. This deception allowed Greek forces to gain entry into the fortified city, ultimately leading to Troy's downfall. The tale symbolizes the themes of trickery and strategy in warfare.
