The history of Troy:
Troy site is an ancient Turkish city, located in the south of Chanalai, near the Da Daniil Strait in the north, at the foot of the gentle castle hill. Here, the mountains are green, the water is flowing, there are citrus trees and olive trees everywhere, and the farmhouses with red tiles and white walls are dotted among them, which is a typical pastoral scenery in the Aegean region of Turkey.
Archaeological site of troy is of great significance for understanding the critical period of the early development of European civilization. In addition, Troy gained more cultural importance because of its profound influence on Homer's creative art in the Iliad for more than two centuries.
Troy has a history of more than 4000 years and has become one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world. The first excavation of this site began at 187 1, and was presided over by the famous archaeologist Heinrich Sheriman. In scientific terms, its massive remains are the most important and substantial evidence of the connection between Anatolia and Mediterranean civilization. Troy was besieged by Spartans and achaean from Greece in 13 BC or 12 BC. This historical fact was written by Homer as an epic, which spread through the ages and inspired many artists in the world.
Troy-a brief introduction to history
Troy was built by the ancient Greeks when they crossed the sea around16th century BC, and flourished from13rd century BC to12nd century BC. The excavation of Troy site began in the middle of19th century and lasted until 1930s. Archaeologists discovered the ruins of Troy in nine periods from 3000 BC to 400 AD, and discovered the ruins of Athena Temple and the parliamentary hall, market and theater of the Roman Empire in 400 AD. Although these buildings have collapsed, judging from the remaining walls and columns, the momentum is quite magnificent. There are castles from 2600 BC to 2300 BC, with a diameter exceeding 120 meters. There are palaces and other buildings in the city. Many gold, silver, jewels and bronzes were found in a library in Wang Jiabao. The pottery was mainly red and brown. In addition, stone tools, bone implements and pottery spinning wheels were unearthed. Troy is the ruins of a burnt-out city. Its stone flower garden is 5 meters long and contains a large number of painted pottery and other daily utensils with simple shapes and geometric figures.
The Trojan horse project described in Homer's Iliad in the 9th century BC took place here. Paris, Prince of Troy, came to visit Menelaus Palace, King of Sparta, Greece, and was warmly received by Menelaus, but Paris abducted Menelaus' wife. Menelaus and his brothers decided to crusade against Troy. Because Troy was strong, it was easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the attack in 10 failed. Finally, the hero Odyssey put forward a plan to let Mycenae soldiers burn down their camp and leave by warship, creating the illusion of retreating back to China and deliberately leaving a huge Trojan at the gate. The Trojans recorded Troy as a victory and dragged it into the city. That night, while the Trojans were drinking vinegar songs to celebrate their victory, Mycenae soldiers hiding in Troy slipped out quietly, opened the gate and put them in the Greek army that had already been lurking outside the city. As a result, Troy was in ruins overnight. The story described in Homer's epic has become a famous piece in western literature and art.
Not far from the ruins of Troy, there is a museum, which is the only museum in Turkey that collects Trojan cultural relics at present. The museum is small in scale, and there are few cultural relics on display. This is because a large number of excavated precious cultural relics were stolen by western cultural relics thieves, including the treasure house of King Priam and Helen's necklace. Nevertheless, the ruins of Troy are still fascinating places. Now Troy has become one of the tourist attractions in Turkey, attracting thousands of tourists.

The Trojan War The cause of the Trojan War is said to be this: The Greek hero Peleus held a grand banquet to marry Thetis, the goddess of the sea. All the gods on the holy mountain of Olympia attended as relatives and friends of this woman. Eris, the goddess in charge of disputes, was ashamed to find that she was the only one who came here without formal invitation. So I made a golden apple engraved with the words "for the most beautiful" to get back at me. On the spot, three goddesses came out and declared themselves the most beautiful. The first is the sister and wife Hera of Zeus; The second is Athena, the daughter of Zeus, Sivir with wisdom and skill; The third is also the daughter of Zeus, Aphrodite, who is in charge of sex.
All three finalists are from the first family, which shows that heaven is also a place where death is suppressed by officials. Aunt Hera is old and strong, and even her brother dares to marry. Naturally, she is more beautiful than her daughters. Zeus, a crafty old scoundrel, was caught in the middle, and the other male gods were even more silent, so we had to make an apology and say that only those who had nothing to do with all parties were the fairest referees. This fiery mountain space was finally thrown to Ida Mountain.
