Its site is almost universally accepted as the mound now named Hissarlik, in Asian Turkey, c.4 mi (6.4 km) from the mouth of the Dardanelles. Accepting Greek tradition and details in Homeric poems as reliable, Heinrich Schliemann identified the site and conducted excavations there beginning in 1871. Nine successive cities or villages have occupied the site, the earliest dating from the Neolithic period. Attempting to determine which stratum of the mound was the Troy (Troia) of the Trojan War, Schliemann first gave this distinction to the third stratum and then to the second.
Troy (Troia) is a city which existed over 4000 years and known as the center of ancient civilizations. Many years, people believed that it was the city in tales and never existed until it was first found. At this time it was known as Ilium or New Ilium. Today Troy or New Ilium places in Hisarlik at Canakkale. The reality of Homer’s description of place, event and topography correlated with geologic investigation helps show that the ‘Iliad’ is not just a legend but regularly consistent with paleogeograhic reconstruction,” concluded the research team, which also included George Rapp of the University of Minnesota, Ilhan Kayan of Ege University in Izmir, Turkey, and classical scholar John V. Luce of Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland. The ancient city Troy (Troia) is located about 25 Km away from Canakkale. Tevfikiye Village, which is located adjusted to the ancient city Troy, is the only settlement nearby. Canakkale Hotels can be considered as the best accomodation alternative for your unforgettable visit to Troy since the surrounding of the ancient Troy is not developed and accomodation alternatives are very limited.
