Description

Troy is one of the most famous ancient cities in the world. The 9 layers of Troy show more than 3000 years of uninterrupted time and allow us to follow the civilizations that have settled in this unique geography where Anatolia, the Aegean and the Balkans meet. The earliest settlement in Troy is dated back to 3000-2500 B.C. and the Early Bronze Age and then the levels of Troy which were permanently inhabited end with the Roman period dates back to 85 B.C and 8 A.D.

Troy has always played an important role in terms of commercial and cultural connections with other regions of civilizations ruled here due to its geographical location. Troy also serves as a reference for the uninterrupted stratification of archaeological sites in Europe and the Aegean. First, started by Heinrich Schliemann in 1871, then continued by Wilhelm Dörpfeld and Carl William Blegen, excavations are still ongoing in this magnificent archaeological city.
