Even Homer himself is very probably a 'creation', as there is not a shred of historical evidence on his existence and his name only first popped up hundreds of years after the creation of the Iliad.
As to the story itself: in the period when the Iliad supposedly played out, Greece's population still consisted of a number of small and fairly primitive communities led by councils of elders. At the time, only Crete had developed into a highly developed culture with Kings on top (the so-called Minoan Kingdom) but Crete doesn't even play a role in the Iliad. So, describing mighty Greek kings fighting a ten-year war on foreign soil back then really is 'creating' a glorious past. In reality, 'wars' in very ancient Greece were mostly sticks-and-stones affairs between two or three of those local communities.
Troy by the way has never even conclusively been proven to have actually existed. What we - and the tourist agencies - now call Troy is a place where seven consecutive cities have stood near the coast of northwestern Turkey. Only one was found to bear clear markings of destruction by fire but that was not the one where the gold 'treasures of Troy' were found by discoverer Heinrich Schliemann. That one burned city might easily have been burned down by natural causes: fire brigades were a thing of the future and all it took was a fire somewhere plus a strong wind at the time.
Theseus, a legendary hero from Greek mythology, does not have a specific birthday, as he is a mythological figure rather than a historical person. His stories are rooted in ancient Greek culture, where significant dates may not have been recorded as they are today. Celebrations or festivals related to Theseus, such as the Panathenaea in Athens, may have served as commemorations of his deeds rather than marking a birthday.
The javelin throw is believed to have originated in ancient Greece. It was part of the Olympic Games and was not attributed to a specific individual inventor, but rather to the history and culture of the ancient Greeks.
he battle of Megiddo, 19-25 September 1918, was the climactic battle of the British invasion of Palestine of 1917-1918. It is also famous as the last great cavalry victory. The battle was subdivided by the British Battles Nomenclature Committee into the battles of Sharon, on the coast, and of Nablus, in the Judean Hills, either of which name makes rather more sense the Megiddo. The cavalry advance flowed past the ancient site of Megiddo, location of the first battle in recorded history (c.1457 BC), on the night of 19/20 September, and the temptation to adopt the name was clearly too great.

The exact birthday of Agamemnon, the legendary king of Mycenae from Greek mythology, is not recorded in historical texts, as he is a fictional character from ancient stories like Homer's "Iliad." Myths do not typically provide specific dates for the births of such characters. Instead, Agamemnon is known for his role in the Trojan War and his tragic fate rather than personal milestones such as a birthday.

I thought it was a good movie, but historically it is not true to history or the time. It is like a lot of the movies Gibson does. He likes to present his view of history whether it is accurate or not. As a historian this bothers me because people think it is real history rather than fiction.
