how much information do you have....i.e. historical sources, information etc
obviously homer is going to be a vital source, and virgil, and other writer of and about the trojan period....btw...is your question on the topic or on the nature of the historical sources?

As a general rule, people only find it hard to start and focus their questions when they don't do research.

We'll help you if you tell us your general understanding and what things you want to look at. Failing this, you can always email me your last minute response and I can have a look over it for you- I'm generally up pretty late at night.

im doin the same topic for an assessment...maybe compare the myth with the archeological evidence...my teacher thinks thats a brilliant idea...so yer just talk about if theres any evidence that backs the iliad up etc...
