In The Iliad, by the Greek poet Homer, the Trojan Horse was a war strategy used by the Greeks. During the war, the Greeks needed one last ploy because the city of Troy was too heavily guarded. The king of Ithaca, Odysseus, came up with the plan to create a large wooden horse as a gift to the Trojans. Odysseus’ men used oak wood from their ships and hid 30 warriors inside the horse. One soldier stood outside Troy and he was planted by Odysseus to tell the Trojans that he was left behind. He told them the large horse was a gift. The trojans wheeled the horse into the city of Troy without knowing the enemy was hiding inside. This trap was the reason that the Greeks won the war. However, is the Trojan Horse a feasible idea for trap for that time
