Trojan War Highlights Menelaus asked his brother Agamemnon to declare war on Troy. Problem- The Greeks cannot get through the walls made of limestone with guarded bowmen on the top. Both sides ask for help from Athena Why do you think they ask Athena? Goddess of wisdom and of war as well

Trojan War Highlights Continued Problem – Both sides have good fighters, and the war is endless. It goes on for 10 years. Must get inside the walls of the city How do the Greeks do this? Build a Trojan horse Make it appear the Greeks disappeared Greek Solution

The Trojan Horse Simon (a Greek) is “left behind”. Told Trojans the horse is a gift for Athena Trojans - bring horse in the city to give gift to Athena

Guess Who? Unknown to the Trojans – The Greeks are inside the belly of the horse. How do the Greeks get inside Troy? The Trojans dragged and pulled the horse inside the city. What do the Greeks do in the darkness of night? The Greeks burn the entire city of Troy to the ground.
