Troia

The Greeks and Trojans fought at Troy. The Trojans were the Barbarians, who lived in Asia. The Trojans and the Greeks fought for 9 years. At the tenth year, Ulysses, a famous Greek, had in mind a new strategy. He told all the Greeks by means of a signal and entrusted to them the strategy: “Carry much wood from the forest to the camp. Prepare a high horse from the wood. We will give a new gift to the Barbarians.”

The Greeks prepared the horse and men climbed into the horse one by one. On the horse they wrote: “The Greeks give the gift by means of Minerva.” Then the moved the horse to the Trojans. They navigated to a small island and prepared the crops. The Barbarians deserted the horse and the camp when they caught sight of the Greeks. They said a sacred sign and moved the horse into the town. At night the Greeks returned from the island and one of the Greeks called forth the men from the horse by means of a sign. In the town, the allies talked. The Greeks occupied Troy. The fortune of the Trojans was bad.
