  Calvert: “Yeah man, this hill? It’s totally Troy.”<br>Schliemann: “No way! Really??”<br>Calvert: <b>*stifled laughter*</b> “For sure.”<br>Schliemann: <b>*digs up 9 settlements dating back to possibly even the chalcolithic*</b> “HOLY SHIT IT’S TROY!!!”<br>Calvert: “huh?”

  I love the myth that the surviving trojans went to italy under aneas and then became the ancestors of the romans and eventually formed rome

  &quot;Total War was inevitable&quot;<br><br>I&apos;m slightly disappointed that you didn&apos;t flash up an ad for the game at that moment.

  We would have known more if Schliemann didn’t use TNT

  A reason why Troy was such an important point remains unmentioned in this material.<br>There is a constant sea current running from the Black Sea towards the Egean. Also winds blow predominantly in this direction. Merchant ships were dependant on winds (no merchant would pay for a numerous rowing crew), thus they had to wait weeks long at the entry of the Hellespont for favourable weather. This is why the control of this single point was crucial and profitable.

  Trojan War is true, a trojan horse just entered my laptop and I was able to defeat it with my anti virus apps allies. It was a pyrrhic victory as i had to reformat my laptop to win. Glad I have google drive.

  Most historians agree now that the Bronze Age collapse was the result of a &quot;systems failure&quot; -- a series of simultaneous catastrophes, any one of which would not have been fatal, brought down the highly integrated multi-state trade and economic structures that ruined highly centralized societies. &nbsp;These include (1) drought, (2) famine, (3) sequential earthquakes and (4) consequent uprisings and sea-borne raids and plunder (the &quot;Sea Peoples&quot;) by desperate masses.
