The Greeks fought for 10 years in Troy. It took them another 10 years to return home
It is a famous story from Greek myth/history in the Bronze Age or thereabouts. Greeks and Trojans were at war for many years. Greeks made the Trojan horse as a trick - filled it with warriors, then left it as a 'gift' at Troy's impregnable gates & pretended to withdraw. The Trojans fell for it, the warriors poured out, and Troy was destroyed.
The Greeks built the Trojan Horse using wood, mainly from fir trees. They crafted the horse as a hollow structure large enough to hide soldiers inside, allowing them to infiltrate the city of Troy.
