Black Ships Before Troy
Chapter 3
The Greeks with Menelaus were racing to Troy. Prince Protesilaus was first to get to Troy, he jumped ashore and was shot in the neck with an arrow. There were more Greeks than the Trojans, and the Greeks dominated the first battle on the beach. The Greeks built a village on the beach and lived there while at war with the Trojans. The Greeks lived here for nine years and were getting tired and restless. The Greeks attacked villages and cut off food from Troy. They enslaved the women after their villages fell in battle.
