Trojan War

The term "tanks" is not applicable to the Trojan War, which was an ancient conflict between the Greeks and Trojans, traditionally dated to the 12th or 13th century BCE. Instead, the war is famous for its legendary elements, such as the use of the Trojan Horse, a deceptive wooden structure used by Greek soldiers to infiltrate the city of Troy. The conflict is primarily documented in Homer's "Iliad," focusing on themes of heroism, honor, and the wrath of Achilles.

first of all let me correct your spelling. Its soldier and idek

Cramped and uncomfortable, if indeed it actually happened. But it made a good story for the bards to sing about in entertaining their audiences.

There were dozens of them - some just for a brief day of glory. The major ones were Agamemnon, Menelaus, Achilles, Odysseus .... Look up the Iliad to get a full list.

It set the scene for Odysseus to be returning to his home in Ithaca, and the perilous adventures which made up the tale of the Odyssey (story of Odysseus)

No, it was about the Persian War 700 years later.

Whether it was real is open to question. It is a story allegedly of the 12th Century BCE, sung by the strolling minstrels to entertain people in an era before movies and TV. Do you believe the stories you see in movies and TV? Some things may be, but you don't know which is and which isn't.

Other peoples were moving into Greece ad taking over from the Achaeans (Greeks), so you wonder what the Greeks were doing over in Asia Minor looting and trying to capture Troy, when their homelands were copping the same in their absence.

The Trojan War is a traditional story, and not necessarily correct in time and location.

All of it.

The story we have relies on the tales sung by strolling minstrels, each with their own version, and even several versions of their own story they used for variety. In the days before movies and TV the bards provided the entertainment. How much of today's movies and TV shows do you believe?

A wooden horse.

Yes - she was married to Menelaus king of Sparta. Paris of Troy was visiting and persuaded her to strip Menelaus' palace of moveable goods and run off with him.

Ten years later when Troy was captured, Menelaus took back the stolen property plus whatever else he could lay his hands on, and headed for home - with also the other bit of his property, Helen.

What other relationships Helen had we don't know - one description of her was 'much-manned Helen'. Use your imagination.

Paris shot him with an arrow in front of the city of Troy in the 10th year of the invasion.

In Sparta where the wife of King Menelaus, 'much manned' Helen, ran off with visiting Trojan prince Paris and most importantly, took all of Menelaus' treasures with her.

Achilles (Greek), Hector (Trojan)

He was very important. He was the warrior who couldn't be killed! That is, until Paris shot his heel with an arrow guided by Apollo.

According to Greek mythology, the Trojan War was a plan put into motion by Zeus to decrease the human population and eliminate his demigod descendants.The precipitating event was the elopement of Helen and Paris when Helen was pledged to King Agamemnon.
