Description
You can see the trenches left by Heinrich Schliemann , the famous German mid-19th-century amateur archeologist who first established the identity of Troy in modern times by burrowing drastically into the site and removing what he found there to send back to Germany . His pioneering work was important , but crude by today's standards , and did a great deal of damage to the site . Modern explorations continue on a more modern scientific basis , demonstrating that the layers he thought were Homeric were in fact far older .

Digitization
Prof. Paul Brians created these photographs using an Olympus Camedia D-490ZOOM with available light, no tripod. A couple of dozen photos toward the end of the trip were made on Kodak disposable cameras. Paul Brians also provided captions and other descriptive information for the images that were cataloged and uploaded to the CONTENTdm server at the WSU Libraries.
