Troy

The civilization that attacked and plundered the city of Troy was the Mycenaean Greeks. This event is famously depicted in Homer's epic poems, particularly the "Iliad," which narrates the Trojan War. The Greeks, led by figures like Agamemnon and Achilles, ultimately used cunning strategies, such as the Trojan Horse, to breach Troy's defenses and claim victory. This war is believed to have occurred during the late Bronze Age, around the 12th century BCE.

For a long time the battle was only held outside the walls of Troy. But after many years of warfare, Odysseus finally came up with a plan of the trojan horse. A wild tale was concocted that would lead the trojans to believe that they must allow the entrance of the horse. When night came and the trojans were all asleep after their drunken celebration, the greek soldiers came out of the horse and put fire on the houses and killed most of the trojans before the latter learned that they were tricked.

Agamemnon. However, most people don't consider there to be heroes or villains in Homer's story of The Iliad (which Troy is based on). The film is really about humans fighting humans.

The opposing side gave Troy a wooden horse. The Trojans thought that it was a gift from Athena (goddess of battle strategy) and brought it into their city. Although they didn't know that the wooden horse was filled with their enemies and during the night the enemies opened the trap door of the wooden horse and destroyed Troy.

In Troy, it's the Trojans. Aeneas led the remaining Trojans to Carthage then Italy.

On the Greek Side, there were many heros,

The biggest one would be Achilles. (Demigod, dipped in the River of Styx, thus, the only spot that could kill him was his heel.)

Others include the witty Odysseus (led to the Odessy, his journey of returning home to ithica.)

He carried with him the Lares and Penates, statues of the household gods of Troy; however, on his back was his father Anichises.

Troy was an ancient city. It was conquered by the Greeks as described by Homer in The Iliad. It was

located in what is now Turkey, east of Greece across the Aegean Sea and overlooking the Hellespont/Dardanelles.

Troy was, of course, a city state, so it was in, well, Troy. The site of the ancient city is now in Turkey - the Asian part of Turkey, which theRomans called Asia Minor. The Troy of the Trojan War period was in Wilusa, a country that the Hittites referred to as an Arzawan Land, meaning that it was once part of greater Arzawa, a country that extended from Wilusa south to modern Miletos, and inland several hundred kilometers. At the time of the Trojan War, Wilusa was a vassal state of Hatti, paying tribute to Hatti and supplying soldiers to Hatti's Great King when called upon to do so based on situations carefully spelled out in a treaty that has been found and translated.

There was no ancient troy

They built a huge honking horse. A small number of Greek soldiers hid inside it. When night fall came, the soldiers killed the guards and opened the gate for the Greek Army that was hiding. Troy was then burned to the ground.

Troy was found by German archaeologist and merchant Heinrich Schliemann in 1873. In 2920, the city of troy was created. A man named Illus founded it. He was convinced by Zeus and Zeus would tell him where the city of Troy would be located. It was located by the the Hellespont, or Dardanelles.

The gods tried to over through Zeus, an Zeus did not like it, As punishment Poseidon and Apollo were forced to Build the walls of Troy. Therefore the walls are not penetrable. Nobody from outside of Troy can destroy the walls. However, the only thing that was penetrable was the main gate. That is how the Greeks destroyed Troy during the Trojan War. Laomaedon, king of Troy, did not pay Poseidon and Apollo, so Apollo set a plague on Troy, and Poseidon sent a sea monster. In order to get rid to sea monster, the Trojans had to sacrifice Hesione to get rid of the sea monster. But Hercules comes and saves her. The plague then dies off.

Troy had huge walls built around the city and the Greeks couldn't breach the walls thus they failed to take the city until..they thought of a plan to deceive the Trojans. What the Greeks did was pretend to retreat and sail back to Greece while leaving a large wooden horse behind. The horse was said to be a gift to the goddess Athena (for safe travel home) and a gift to the Trojans for their apparent victory. The Trojans took the Horse into the city and celebrated. Little did they know, that there were Greek soldiers in the Horse waiting. Come nightfall, when everyone was asleep, they left the horse and stormed the gates. They successfully signaled to the Greek fleet (which was hiding offshore) and opened the gates. What followed was the sacking of Troy.

If you are more interested in reading about the Trojan war, I recommend you read "The odyssey" or watch the movie Troy, starring Brad Pitt and Eric Bana.

Yes! He married 17 year babe. She won first prise in high school essay about Homer. He did have 2 sons with her???

The Iliad ended with the death of Hector, it never described the sacking of Troy yet.

10 years

In 1871-73 and 1878/9 AD/ CE, Heinrich Schliemann excavated in the vicinity of Hisarlik, a village of the area which was part of the Ottonam Empire at the time, 10 cities one on top of the other since the dawn of the Bronze Age circa 3000 BCE where he found the Treasure of King Priam of Troy and of course Mycenae in Greece [1874 AD/ CE] which verifies that what was considered a fairy tale is pure history.

The ancient city of Troy is believed to be on the site of Hissarlik, in present day Turkey. Although excavated for over 20 years by British archaeologist Frank Calvert, it was German archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann who argued that Hissarlik was in fact the site of Troy, based on descriptions of the site in ancient texts and evidence of violent destruction at the site. His theory is widely held to be true by most archaeologists today.

Illum/ Ilion, Dardan Land, Troy Land, Troad

Troy, called Ilion by the Greeks ( whence The Iliad) was a city which was thought to be mythical until the discovery of its ruins by the German amateur archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann in the 1800's. All of The Iliad's events are fictional, its characters are at best only semi-historical, and indeed there are several versions of the story that contradict each other in almost every detail. It is likely that a Bronze Age Trojan War was actually fought, though it would have been for economic reasons. Troy controlled the trade through the Bosphorus between the Black Sea and the Mediterranean. The ruins of Troy show that the city was destroyed and rebuilt perhaps as many as ten times over many centuries. The layer called Troy VIIa is believed to be the actual city of The Iliad.
