Trojan Horse model, Troy, Turkey
Head of a wooden model of the Trojan Horse built by the Turkish government in Troy, Turkey. Troy was a city, both factual and legendary, in northwest Anatolia in what is now Turkey. The original Trojan horse was said to be used by the Greeks to capture the city of Troy from the Trojans during the Trojan War. Greek soldiers hid inside the body of the horse which was pulled into the besieged city by the Trojans, who believed the Greeks to have retreated. Picture by Manuel Cohen
