Cause of the Trojan War
During a royal wedding in Troy, uninvited Eris, the
goddess of discord, brought an apple.
The apple had the inscription “To the fairest.”
Paris, the king’s son, had to choose between the
three most powerful goddesses: Athena (wisdom),
Aphrodite (love & beauty), and Hera (Queen of the
Gods).

Revenge and a Truce Achilles returned to the battlefield and killed Hector.
He dragged Hector’s body behind his chariot
around the city walls of Troy.
Hector’s father paid a ransom for the return of the
body to the family.
Achilles feeling remorse called a truce for the
twelve days during Hector’s funeral.

Odysseus’s Plan
After ten long years of battling, Odysseus, a Greek hero and
King of Ithaca, came up with an unusual plan:
They would build a giant wooden horse.
Soldiers would hide in the belly of the horse.
They would leave the horse outside the walls of Troy.
The Trojans, believing it was a gift, would bring it into the city.
The Greek soldiers would attack within the city walls at night.

The Trojan Horse A Trojan priest ordered the horse to be burnt.
Hera and Athena interfered by sending a huge
serpent to kill the priest and his sons.
The Trojans feared this as an omen and took the
horse into the city.
After the Trojans had celebrated by dancing and
drinking, the Greek soldiers crept out of the horse.

Did the city of Troy really exist?
Until the late 19th century, most historians believed that Troy did not exist.
Heinrich Schliemann excavated an ancient city in Turkey and discovered it was Troy.
Nine cities have been found at the site, one on top of the other.
Schliemann identified Troy's location through clues he found in the Iliad.
