Product Description

Unsolved History is history the way it was! Through detailed examination of archeological and forensic evidence, existing photographs, authentic artifacts, and carefully selected interviews from eyewitnesses and experts events are reconstructed and historical questions are finally answered. Much of what we know about the Trojan War is based on the writings of the Greek poet Homer. In his 3,000-year-old epic, The Iliad, Homer tells of an abducted princess, a 10-year siege of the city of Troy and a clever trick in the form of a wooden horse that brought the war to a swift and bloody end. But how much of the story is fact and how much is romanticized fiction? In this extended episode, join investigators as they seek to uncover the historical truth behind the legend. Archaeologists visit the actual site of the siege, while engineers and military experts analyze what it must have taken to build the Trojan Horse and how much of a tactical advantage it would have provided.
