| | Troy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Today it is the name of an archaeological site, the traditional location of Homeric Troy, Turkish Truva, in Hisarlık (39°58′N 26°13′E) in Anatolia, close to the seacoast in what is now Çanakkale province in northwest Turkey, southwest of the Dardanelles under Mount Ida. |
 | | The site of the ancient city today is some 15 kilometers from the coast, but the ancient mouths of Scamander, some 3,000 years ago, were some 5 kilometers further inland, pouring into a bay that has since been filled with alluvial material. |
 | | A small minority of contemporary scholars argue that Homeric Troy was not in Anatolia, but located elsewhere: England[4], Croatia, and Scandinavia have been proposed. |
