EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative photograph captures the haunting beauty and historical significance of the Ruins at Hisarlik, the modern name for the archaeological site of ancient Troy. Located approximately 6.5 km from the Aegean Sea and equidistant from the Dardanelles in Turkey, the site has been a source of fascination and intrigue for historians, archaeologists, and literature enthusiasts for centuries. The fallen columns and crumbling walls, bathed in the soft light of the sun, tell the story of a civilization that once thrived here. The ruins of Troy, also known as Ilium in Homeric literature, are believed to have been founded around 3000 BC and were inhabited until around 500 AD. The site gained international fame in the late 19th century when German archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann unearthed the remains of the city, including the famous Trojan Horse. The history of Troy is rich and complex, with many legends and myths surrounding its origins and fall. The most famous of these is the Trojan War, recounted in Homer's Iliad and Odyssey. The ruins at Hisarlik offer a glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with the people who lived here thousands of years ago and to appreciate the cultural and historical significance of this ancient city." This photograph, taken around 1930, captures the essence of the Ruins at Hisarlik, transporting us back in time and inviting us to explore the mysteries of this fascinating archaeological site. The image is a poignant reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that lies hidden beneath the sands of time, waiting to be discovered and appreciated by future generations.
