PRESENTATION OUTLINE

Virgil's Aeneid, Book 2

Battle between Trojans and Greeks
Greeks construct a giant Trojan horse, with a hollow belly
Inside are armed Greek soldiers

Book 2 Continued

Trojans believe the horse is an offering from a god
Trojans bring horse into Troy
When night falls Greeks wage war on people of Troy

Book 2 continued

By the end of the night the Greeks slaughter Priam, the king and his son.
To end the story the surviving Trojans flee into the mountains
Greeks take over
