Question Details

Detailed explanation and options for the selected question.

In which Greek epic is the Trojan horse used to infiltrate Troy?

A. The Iliad
B. The Odyssey
C. Argonautica
D. The Aeneid

Explanation:

Actually the Trojan Horse is recounted mainly in the Odyssey’s references and in Virgil’s Aeneid. The Iliad ends before that event. But we typically associate Trojan horse with the Odyssey or the later epic cycle. Let’s say ‘The Odyssey’ mentions it. (Trick: The direct mention is in the Odyssey and the Aeneid, not in the Iliad proper.)
