Troy

After twenty years from home, Odysseus departs from the goddess Calypso's island. He arrives in Phoenicia, which is ruled by Alcinous. Alcionous asks Odysseus to tell him the story of his adventures, in exchange for a ship back to his homeland. Odysseus then proceeds to tell Alcinous of the war in Troy, going to Ismarus, how his soldiers dismantled the town and losing several rows of men on each ship from the Cicones army.

Troy was one of the most formidable of the ancient cities. It was located in what is now Turkey, overlooking the Hellespont/Dardanelles. It is said to have been built by Neptune, and so in Virgil's Aeneid is referred to as Neptunes Troy. It is said to have walls half a mile high, and could only be penetrated through the trick of the Trojan horse.

Heinrich Schliemann used Homer's epic poem "The Iliad" as his guide in locating the site of Troy. He believed that the detailed descriptions of the city in the poem matched the geography and landscape of a site in Turkey that he eventually identified as the ancient city of Troy.

A historian - schleimann i think - read Homers Illiad, made comparisons of the geographical layouts described and locations mentioned in it, and excavated several sites until he found it. It should be noted that the archaeologist missed homer's troy by two or more strata.

There were many different cities built on the site of Troy. In each case, the city was built, then later destroyed or abandoned, then sometimes left unoccupied for a while, and then later re-built. The first known city of Troy was built about 3000 B.C. The one that's considered most likely to be the subject of the Iliad was destroyed by war and fire in 1260 B.C. The last Troy began its decline after the construction of Constantinople in the 4th century A.D.
