Well, I think in that pole, I was supposed to see the name of Cenghiz Khan as well. At least he did not lose any war entire of his life... And when he was alive, his kingdom's land was 3 times bigger than Roman Emporer
And another think is about Troy. Troy was founded in B.C. 2920 and survived by 500 A.D., therefore, it was not difficult to find its location by following mthology. And it does not mean that Archilles really lived and killed 23 soldiers by one hand... Otherwise, we are supposed to believe in Apollon, Herakles, Xeus
There are 2 views about that:
1. Greeks and Trojans really fought each other, and Homeros was the best narrator.
2. This story was created by Homeros.
Have a nice day...
