I belive the inhabitants of Troy were the Luwians, a subject people of the Hitite empire. The Lycians were descended from the Luwians. Many scholars think they were one of the Sea Peoples who invaded Greece.

I grew up in Greece and the stories of Homer are still very much alive and all children in Greece know of them. Morover names of the Iliad heroes still exist in Modern Greece. The historical truth is that these ancient people were Greeks and built the Mycenaean civilization which according to some historians came to the end upon arrival of the Dorian's the last of the 3 Greek triebs to arrive having iron weapons which brought to a close the bronze age and plunged Greece to a dark 400 year age. It is not important if the stories of Homer were true which probably they were not but wars happened and the motive was usually loot and not Helen but the important thing is that the later Greeks with so much internal strifes looked with nostalgia to a period even mythological when all Greeks united against a common enemy!!

World first cultures Lepenski Vir (Iron Gates) starts 11500 BC, Starcevo culture starts 6200 BC, Vinča culture starts 5700 BC, today Serbia. Cucuteni culture starts 4800 BC, Varna culture starts 4500 BC. World first industrial revolution ca. 6000 BC. Bronze metallurgy. (BBC History news March 2010) Gordon Childe-The Danube in Prehistory, Jacque Pirenne-Agriculture at Danube Farming start about 6000 BC. Vinca First Calendar start to count years at 5508 BC. (Now in 2024 we have year 7532) Farming wouldn’t be possible without knowledge of calendar. Both development started and developed together. Harald Harman about first cyrillic writings in Vinca culture in 5500 BC so 2000 years before any writings anywhere else on the world. Vinca Iron production 1400 BC. In today English language there is more than 2000 same or similar Serbian words. Names of the Balkan tribes: Pelasgians, Mycenaeans, Etruscan, Wendi, (Wendisch museum in Cottbus, Germany) Illiyrians, Macedonians, Dardanians (Original Troy is here, not in Turkey, Homer wrote sea is freezing in the winter-Panonian sea), Moesians, Dacians, Thracians, Rasci, Celts, Scythians, Sarmatians, Arians, Sea People, Peleset, Philistines, Hittites, Bhrygians. Tribes spread in all directions all over Europe and Asia ……. Wild Greeks arived ~ 1500 BC from Egipt, Hungarian from Asia and Bulgars from Asia they found culture on the Balkans, writings and language and they mixed with domestic people. 18 Roman emperors were born in Serbia because of Etruscan connection. After Trojan war many groups of people left Troy in all directions to middle Europe, northern Europe to Britain and Scandinavia, south to Anatolia.One group under Aeneas sat sail with 22 ships and about 3400 followers and reach Italy-Etruscans. Proto serbian language is older than Sanskrit, Greek, Latin or all western Europian languages. Plato confirms in his work The Dialogues of Plato-Cratylus the Greeks used Pelasgian (Proto Serbian) to develop their own language.

First World Empire: Nimrod-God Bacchus: 2025-2000 BCE. The creation of the First World Empire started from Nis, (Naissus) Serbia. Bocharti says that Nimrod’s army became known as Aryans. This is because Nimrod’s army consisted of professional hunters; the God of hunting in Serbian mythology is called Arion: consequently, we get Arions / Aryans. (Samuelis Bocharti) Nimrod’s wife Semiramis constructed in Babylon first world wonder Tower of Babylon mentioned in Old Testament. Second World Empire: Serbo Makeridov: 1330-1300 BCE. The creation of the Second World Empire started from south Serbia. Alexander the Great tell us that there was a second world conquest which started from Naissus (Nis, Serbia) and which was led by the God Serbon: a great leader who was proclaimed a divinity-Quintus Rufus. Eusebii Pamphili claims that Serbon fought the Indians ca.1325 BCE and afterwards he built another Naissus at the Indus river, this was the city where Alexander the Great encountered Serbs according to Quintus Rufus and Pamphili (Ptolemaeus Eusebii). Troy: 2000-1184 BCE. Dardania to day Serbia. Third World Empire: Alexander the Great: 336-323 BCE. Son of King Philip the Great Karanovic and mother Olympia daughter of King Neotolomay Molosses from Serbo-Rasa tribe. (Ulrich Wilcken, Gustave Glotz) The creation of the Third World Empire started from south Serbia. Fourth World Empire: Roman Empire: Etruscan organized Roman Empire and eastern Roman Empire and 18 Emperors are from today Serbia Constantine the Great also born in Nis (Naissus). Following the 3rd Century Crisis (290s AD onward, the Empire was feeling less secure and thus there was a need for strong military leaders to take charge. Many Roman noblemen and statesmen were born in present-day Serbia, including 17 or 18 Roman Emperors (Vetranio wasn't universally recognized as an emperor, but was proclaimed a caesar).[2]

Mycenaeans are called the people of the fortress city of Mycenae, the "Mycenaean civilisation" is just the archeological term used for the Bronze Age Greek territory. In Homer, Greeks are called collectively Danaans, Achaeans, Argives, Pan-Hellenes etc. names that are toponyms or linked them with a common ancestor, but all meaning the Greeks. You can call them (the Mycenaeans) Achaeans or simply Greek. The language is the same Greek language from 1500 bc. till today, of course with continuous changes through the times.

Also about indigenous peoples, Pelasgians, Leleges, Carres, Eteocretans or what we now call Minoans were some that might fit the description. But Greeks also believed to be autochthonous with their mythological ancestors being both indigenous and outsiders. They were fully aware of the coexistence of non greek speaking peoples in the area and at some point claimed some relationship with Pelasgians. Few pelasgian toponyms (and maybe couple words also) survive till nowadays in greek language. As for the so called Dorian invasion, we don't even know if there was at some point such a large scale event that this hypothesis implies at all.

This woman nothing about Greek history because if she did then she would know that the Mycenaeans are the proto Greeks and their dna,religious traditions,etc are all related to their descendants of the Homeric,archaic,classical,etc time periods. Also Greek dna today is genetically similar to both Mycenaeans and Minoans

Years ago, it was believed that the city of Troy was only a myth, such as the city of Jericho mentionned in the Bible. They were both found later. This shows that we might have been a bit too sceptical about what was written in ancient texts. We can safely trust some elements, especially about the identity of kings and warriors. A lot of fiction was most surely written about them in order to glorify their city of their dynasty, but great people are always remembered this way. Many historians think that kings such as Agamemnon, David or even Gilgamesh truly existed.

Minoans and Mycenaeans were not Dorians, Spartans and Ionians, a Pelasgian Illyrian Albanian race, native to Balkan and Italy. Minoans and Mycenaeans were an Anatolian brown race, they were not the natives of South Europe. They were a dark, brown race worshipping snakes in Anatolia. Dorians, Ionians and Spartans were a Pelasgian Illyrian Albanian race. Mycenaens built big wall around south Greece, from who were they afraid of? I guess the Spartans, living in someone else's lands is dangerous.
