Have you heard of the Trojan war before? Many people are still puzzled if the Trojan war was real or just a story someone made up just so their child would go to sleep. The whole story starts with the most beautiful woman in the world. (Isn't that always the way?) Helen was married to a Greek king. She was taken away after she was seduced by the prince of troy, Paris. Well as you might have guessed, it did not sit well with the Greeks. So they go in to war which went on for ten years. After a while they decide to use trickery. They left a wooden horse outside of troy. Which the Trojans bring inside. In the night the Greeks climb out of the wooden horse and opened the gates of troy.
Turns out that the destroying of Troy was not started because of love for the same woman. It was a war started because of greed and territory.
I know your probably wondering where does the Trojan horse come in at? In fact there are no clues in the text or in archeology record. In fact it proves that Homer was an amazing Story teller.
