Starting a war over a woman

>starting a war over a woman

Was it autism?

>letting a giant wooden horse inside the city
>without checking what's inside it

Great idea, what could possibly go wrong?

It was a folktale/work-of-fiction, collected by that series of poets that marketed itself under the shared name of "Homer."

If Priam returned Helen like he should have, there wouldn't have been a war

The Iliad is commentary on factionism and tribalism (sectarianism).

Factionism and tribalism is commentary on the concerns of groups.

Group concerns is commentary on biological need and imperatives.

In short: The conquest of good genetic material and to put one's suitability to the test is biological in nature; nature doesn't have to impress you and your misconceptions of "safe space" purpose.

It is definitely a twist on wars that all-too happened a lot: tribal wars over women (Rome literally started with a war over the Sabine women)

Bitches are a valuable resource

Not the first time it's happened. A large war that involved several Maya kingdoms and Nahuas was started over two women who ran off with the enemy. This war led to a division that ripped apart the region and made it divided enough for the Spaniards to take advantage when they arrived 3 decades later.

1. She was really hot
2. She was property, so it was essentially theft
3. it was Priam, not Menelaus who acted as the Anax, so it was probably just an excuse to annex the rich Troy

The Trojan War is the fictional remembering of a Historical age long past the Tribal Stage in its society.

It certainly was great source material for a fantasy/folk tale epic. Take Mycenaean source material and oral tradition and pass it on as a wholesome shounen-esque badass tale in the classical era.

Was this the story of a Mycenaean - Lydian war?

Homer was real though while you suck cocks.

Lydians didn't even exist before 700 bc you fucktard

no, homer is one person for sure.
This is so stupid it stops being a hypothesis and starts being historical fanfiction.

tell me honestly
would you be caring about money and wealth that much if not for women?
every war is for resources of some sort
resources you use on a woman

women are evil

They are just called Hittites at this point.
Its like saying Iranians didn't exist until their state was internationally recognized to be called that.

No,Luwians allied with Hittities

Luwian =/= Lydian

It's like saying Dante was a Roman

>not starting a war over a woman
OP is a fucking numale cuck.

cool proofs

Actually, the event called the "Trojan war" is a depiction of the Crusades of the 13th century.
It was when the Great Russian Horde launched the crusades against Czar-Grad(Constantinople) as revenge for the crucifixion of Jesus in 1185 (revenge for insulting the Mother of God – for the execution of her Son Jesus Christ.)

The Trojan War and all its duplicates (Tarquinian War, Gothic War…) are described as the "wars to avenge the dishonoring of a woman". the central narrative of the Trojan War is a legend about the offence given to some distinguished woman, which resulted in either a war, or a state coup. The Trojan version tells us about the abduction of the Greek Helen of Sparta, the Tarquinian version of Titus Livy – about the rape of the Roman Lucretia, the Gothic version – about the murder of the Gothic queen Amalasunta.

>It's like saying Dante was a Roman

He was! He was a Holyromanempireian.

this

subterfuge hadnt been invented yet

>he wouldn't try to kill someone who seduced his wife

>he thinks it started over Helen
>and not because of Troy's monopoly on tin

Nigga how you gonna make bronze with just copper?

Troy was rich, this was just a pretext for invading and sacking Troy.

However things spiraled quickly out of control and now neither side could back down.

they hot af though

Troy wasn't rich
