The Trojan War took place in 13th or 12th century B.C.The Trojan Horse was used for sneaking into cites and guarded areas. People used swords to fight back then. The Trojan War waged against the city in Asia minor by the armies of the Achaeans, following the kidnapping of Helen of Sparta by Paris of troy. The war is the most important events in Greek mythology. Troy was located on the coast of Asia, across the sea from Greek city-state of Sparta. People used to build walls around there city to help protect them. The people built gates in the wall. The gates could be closed and lock to stop intruders from getting inside. The walls around Troy were very high and very strong. For ten long years, the Greek had been trying to get over the wall. Year after year they fought and year after year, neither side won. Odysseus, had a tricky idea. We”ll leave a gift for Troy, a gift to announce the end of the war, a wooden horse with 30 men inside.

The Trojan Horse was used for the Greeks to hide inside.When they got out of the horse the 30 men opened the gates to Troy and let the whole army in.While the Trojans were asleep after celebrating the Greeks came and attacked the Trojans with brutal force and the Trojans never expected the attack.The Trojans surrendered the Greeks burned the city down.(Greeks won).
