Final answer:

Archaeologists discovered ruins of ancient cities, evidence of the Olympics, and writings of Homer in ancient Greece.

Step-by-step explanation:

Archaeologists discovered several pieces of information about ancient Greece:

  1. Archaeologists uncovered ruins of ancient cities, one of which was believed to be Troy. Heinrich Schliemann excavated the site in 1876 and found evidence that aligned with observations discussed in the Iliad and the Odyssey.
  2. Archaeologists examined evidence of the Olympics and found information about the competition and the victors. This helps us understand the ancient Greek sporting culture.
  3. Archaeologists dug up evidence of the writings of Homer that led them to conclude that he was the author of the Iliad and the Odyssey. This discovery provided historical accuracy to Homer's tales.
