The history of Troy, which began with a small settlement of the Copper-Stone Age, spans more than five millennia. Once upon a time, a war for Helen of Troy was fought on this land, and feats were performed that remained in the memory of mankind thanks to the great Homer. The Persian king Xerxes and Alexander the Great visited Troy... People lived here until the late Middle Ages, but then Troy was lost in the depths of centuries, and only at the end of the 19th century was it returned to the world by the brilliant amateur and lover of antiquities Heinrich Schliemann. Archaeological excavations continue here today, attracting tourists from all over the world.

The book by journalist Olga Kolobova and archaeologist Valery Ivanov, working under the common pseudonym Oleg Ivik, is dedicated to the legendary city - its life in myths, history and archaeology.
