Because of this he Instantly sent a decry to gather all the soldiers to fight against troy. But as soon as they arrived the army faced a problem, the city gates. The Greeks fought for ten years but did not succeed.

         Finally, after a decade one soldier had a bright idea. Because of this, everyone started cutting tree’s and nailing them together. By the time they were done they had a majestic horse. The plan was the trojans would think this was a surrender gift while in realty the majority of soldiers were hiding in the belly of the horse. The rest of the soldiers hid in caves while making it seem as if they had sailed away. They waited in suspense till the curious trojans would let the horse into the walls. That night after the trojans had partied long over what they thought was there victory the sneaky silent soldiers crept out of the massive horse and retrieved Helen. After wards they burned the city. A simple idea won a battle.

Fascinating Roman Aqueducts

         Hundreds of miles of aqueducts stretched throughout the Roman Empire.  The romans had erected them extremely skillfully. These complex structures brought usable water to numerous towns. Some snaked underground while others towered and swerved above ground. They sloped discreetly and like waterslides through the mountains. Colossal tanks and springs held the water. Romans had comfortable access to fresh water from sixty miles away. Because the essential structures were made of stone and cement, they were durable. Some are in such suitable condition that they are used to this day. Roman aqueducts are a fascinating achievement.
