Herodotus's Take on the Abduction of Helen

Alexander the great made a special trip to what he thinks is the tomb of achilles. He takes all his clothes offand anoints himself in oil, and then runs round and round. It's classic behaviour on a turkish trip. And we know that this is where the greeks and romans thought that the battle had been fought. In the wake of alexander's conquest, a town grows up there,. which is a kind of homage to a to the original troy.
