Troy (sh)




or Ilium

Ancient city in Troas, northwestern Anatolia.

It holds an enduring place in both literature and archaeology. In literature, it is well known as the location of the Trojan War. The archaeological site, a huge mound at modern Hisarl?k on the Menderes (Scamander) River, was first excavated by archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann (1870-90). It consists of nine major layers Dating from the Neolithic Period to Roman times (งใ 3000 BC-4th century AD). Whether it is the actual city of Homer is still debated. In Greek legend, the city was besieged and finally destroyed by the Greeks after a 10-year siege. The heroes of Troy were identified by Schliemann with the Mycenaeans of the Greek Bronze Age, placing the war at งใ 1200 BC. Its story is told in Homer's Iliad and Odyssey and in Virgil's Aeneid.
