 Web Review for Troy and Heinrich Schliemann's Treasure, by Scott Reed, HIS104 Student Web Projects, Lexington Community College
Schliemann mistakenly dubbed the artifacts "Priam's Treasure" in reference to the king of the ancient city of Troy.
The biggest issue involving the so-called "Priam's Gold" is its history and uncertain future.
Using the web to research this topic I came across many sites that helped me to have a better understanding about not only the believed to be fictional Trojan War but about excavating, and what is called "war booty", but few that did not repeat the other.

 ELECTRONIC ANTIQUITY V5N3
Hermes inquires whether Priam is taking the great treasure away from Troy so that he can flee the city while there is still time (24.380-385), and there was an opportunity for Priam to do this.
The poet, indeed, says that Priam spared nothing from his house when he gathered his treasure together, not even his great cup (24.234-237).
But the fact that such an idea never seems to have crossed Priam's mind and that he doesn't bother to answer Hermes shows Priam's great sense of honor and lack of greed, in contrast to Dolon.
