D.The Trojan War got started when the Trojans invaded Greece.

Answer 1

The correct answer is A. The Trojan War was a historical event that took place in the Bronze Age.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Trojan War was a mythical war in ancient Greece between several Greek tribes and the city of Troy. The Greeks considered the Trojan War a real historical event and, according to calculations by Eratosthene, for example, it would have ended in 1184 BC. In contrast, especially in the early 19th century, most scholars considered it a mere myth. However, excavations by Heinrich Schliemann showed that the Troy did exist exactly where genetic information placed it, and according to some studies, it has been attacked by enemies, even quite close to the time assumed by Eratosthene. However, it remains unclear to what extent the fables about the Trojan War are based on real events. The war took place in the Greek Bronze Age at the end of the Mycenaean period.
