Welcome to Troy
While not the most dramatic of Turkey’s ancient sites, Troy is testament to the importance of myth to the human experience. Some imagination is needed to reconstruct the city’s former splendour, but a decent guide will quickly bring to life the place that set the scene for Homer’s Iliad. Troy is a popular destination for weekending school parties; try to visit mid-week.
The name Troy refers both to a place in legend and a real-life archaeological site. In legend, Troy is a city that was besieged for 10 years and eventually conquered by a Greek army led by King Agamemnon. The reason for this “Trojan War” was, according to Homer’s “Iliad,” the abduction of Helen, a queen from Sparta. This abduction was done by Paris, the son of Troy’s King Priam. Throughout the “Iliad” the gods constantly intervene in support of characters on both sides of the conflict.
