The archaeological site of Troy reveals nine layers of continuous settlement, from Troy I (circa 3000 BCE) through Troy IX (circa 85 BCE). Each layer uncovers a different chapter of Troy’s history, with Troy I marking its early Bronze Age origins and Troy VI and VII associated with the time of the legendary Trojan War. Troy IX represents the city’s Roman period, showing its long-lasting significance. These layers offer a fascinating journey through the architectural, cultural, and historical evolution of this ancient city.
