Ithaka, der Peloponnes und Troja

Ithaka, der Peloponnes und Troja (Ithaca, the Peloponnese, and Troy) was an 1869 publication by Heinrich Schliemann. In this work, Schliemann argued that Hisarl\u0131k in Asia Minor, not Bunarbashi, was the site of ancient Troy. He also proposed that the graves of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra were located within the citadel walls of Mycenae, rather than outside as previously thought.1

Schliemann, a German archaeologist, is known for his excavations at Troy, Mycenae, and Tiryns. His work brought significant attention to the prehistoric archaeology of Greece, though modern scholarship has noted elements of self-mythologizing in his reputation. His discoveries, particularly at Mycenae, revealed royal shaft graves containing treasures, which he believed belonged to the heroes of Homer's Trojan War.123
