Ithaca:Greek archaeologists have claimed that they have found the palace of Odysseus after 16 years of excavation. The discovery was reportedly made on the Ithaca Island
in the Ionian Sea . "We found the ruins of a three-level palace with a staircase
carved into the rock," Noinvite.com quoted Thanasis Papadopulos as saying He added
that they also found a well, dating back to 13th century BC, when the Trojan War
is believed to have taken place. According to the archaeologist, the discoveries
are identical to the ones described in Homer's Odyssey, presumably written about
8th century BC. |
