Extract

The purpose of this article is to draw attention to a series of problems which arise from a comprehensive study of the architectural remains of Troy I and II discovered by H. Schliemann, W. Dörpfeld and C. W. Blegen. One had hoped that Professor Blegen himself would publish at least a detailed plan showing how the newly discovered walls were related to those found by the earlier excavators; for there are problems arising from such a combination of plans which might have been solved with little expense or difficulty by the excavators on the spot, whereas to solve them now would require a new expedition. However, it is twenty years since the conclusion of the University of Cincinnati's excavations at Troy, and neither in the final publication of the results of the expedition, which appeared in 1950, nor elsewhere, has any such synthesis been attempted by him.
