Introduction

This activity requires you to write text and to assemble relevant illustrations/maps in a

report about the Trojan War. Using Homer’s Iliad as a starting point, explain the war’s

significance to the classical world in terms of the way those involved modelled ancient

Greek values about leadership, heroism and cultural expectations. Consider the value of

the archaeological finds from the war, in terms of what they reveal to us about life the

Bronze Age.

The extent to which you show insight into the importance of the war by giving an

informed explanation (including primary evidence) will determine the overall grade.
