Answer 2

Probably. Although it is likely that her story was embellished and perhaps even confused with the stories of other notable women of that region and historical period.

AnswerMany ancient legends have long been thought to be completely fictitious. However, recent historical and archaeological research has uncovered evidence that many of these 'myths' are, in fact, rooted in actual historical events. The ruins of the city of Troy, for instance, have been located.

Current analyses of the works of Homer indicate that he was more historian than storyteller. Although one must understand that in his time there was little distinction between those occupations and the events he recorded had probably been retold many times before he wrote them down.
