Classical Literature Update

From Mike:

Ok, we were talking about the Iliad and the Odyssey (at least, I believe it was you) and you said something about how you thought the Trojan horse event was in the Iliad.  When I told you you were wrong, you were appalled and said, "Wait, WHAT?".  Well, although the Trojan horse is never mentioned in the Iliad, the Aeneid, the book explaining the creation of Rome and how Rome basically stole Greek myth and changed some names, does in fact mention the Trojan Horse and the end of the of the Trojan war.  So there.
