#TrojanHorse #Mythology #AncientGreece #History #GreekMythology

The Trojan Horse is a legendary story about the Greeks building a giant wooden horse, filling it with soldiers, and leaving it outside the walls of Troy. The Trojans, believing it to be a peace offering, brought it inside the city walls. However, the horse was filled with Greek soldiers who attacked the city from the inside and won the war. In this episode, we explore the history of this story and consider whether it was a real event or just a literary device. While some argue that the Trojan Horse was merely a literary device used to enhance the story's drama, most historians believe that it is just a myth. They point out that not only has no physical evidence of the horse been found, but the concept of hiding soldiers inside a large wooden horse would not have been practical. Join us as we unravel the mystery of the Trojan Horse by separating fact from fiction.

Thanks for watching!

No way the wooden horse didn't survive a Fucking city being burnt

While it's entirely plausible it was a literary device, I don't think lack of physical evidence means much here, seeing as it's such a (relatively) small, biodegradable, one-of-a-kind object.

There isn't even physical evidence of half of the wonders of the ancient world.

Maybe they send an envoy gifting the Trojan a real fine horse as a peace offering and the envoy opened the gates at night?

There is a depiction of the Trojan Horse from just 20 years or so after it was alleged to have existed, which is near enough contemporary evidence. So I would say it definitely existed.

The reason why it never happen a second time cause no one will fall for it lol 😂

I mean, how many soldiers can fit in a wooden horse? And how big would it have to be to fit enough soldiers, to win a battle once they got inside? Sounds unlikely

I think the Trojan horse is true but only because you could do it once and never again 😅 so yes

Know way a story like this was made up, I truly know it happened, it's true human nature!

I remember a story about this. The soldiers were in there for a very long time. Some were getting heat exhaustion and of course no water. So some were dying of thirst in there and they had been in there for hours and hours. But who knows.

Dude horse is wood . Decay or fire kills wood . Simple as that . Also in turkey in touristic location of troy they have a Replika of a horse. Iliades tells about the horse . Story of odyssey also says about the horse . History usually is translated in different papyrus or different kind of papers or books .

They were Albanians in ancient time. Troja literally means lands, property in Albanian 🇦🇱

D.H.Alb.

They couldn't beat Troy in fair battle so they made horse 😮

It sound ridiculous, but people were pretty stupid back then, and continue to be stupid into the modern era. But then again, if it’s easily believable like that, then it’s entirely possible that it was just made up or exaggerated

Here is the most well thought out, reasoned and possible things in the all of the ancient greek world, but i'm sure because like 98% of our history there's no physical evidence, so how could it possibly be real?
