Trojan War (Hisarlik Level VIIa)

1194–1184 BC Aegean / Anatolia Status: ended Casualties: Unknown

Mycenaean-era siege of Troy VIIa, the layer destroyed by fire c. 1180 BC. Whether Homer's war is a memory of this destruction, of a Hittite-period conflict over Wilusa, or a composite is still debated — but the burned city is real.
