Description: The location of the ancient city of Troy is placed along Croatia's Dalmatian Coast by the author who suggests that geographical realities found there correspond to geographical statements found in the Iliad and Odyssey. In addition, it is suggested that evidence points to these works having been originally created in a Slavic dialect and later translated into "Homeric" Greek.
