THE TROJAN WAR ON VASES















THE TREASURE WAS TAKEN BY SCHLİEMANN

PS: TROJANS WERE NOT GREEK !!!


Because the iliad was written in ancient Greek many people think that the Trojans and the Greeks were the same . The truth is they were not Greek and they didn't spoke the Greek language, but Luvian an Anatolian language.

"Hector, I urge you above all to do as I say. In his great city, Priam has many allies. But these, foreigners all talk different languages. " iliad II. 800-806

" Such was the babel taht went up from the great Trojan army, which hailed from many parts and being without a common language used many different cries and calls." İliad IV. 437-739

That means the TROJANS and THEIR ALLIES were certainly NOT GREEK and GREEK SPEAKİNG.

The names of many heroes mentioned in the iliad were local ANATOLIAN names.  (the Troy Guide) 




DOES THE TRUTH HURT ?
GOOD.
