The battle for Troy described in Books 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18 of the Iliad lasted for two days, and was not interrupted during the night. As Felice Vinci suggested in his theory, this could only happen during the mid-summer period in the North, during the so called 'white nights'.

From the numerous indications in the Iliad, Felice determined that the Trojan war took place in the Baltics, and Troy was located near to the shores of the Gulf of Finland.

There is still a huge work for the archaeologists and historians, as the Iliad re-appears to be one the earliest historic texts about history of the Baltic region, and is not an invention.

Heinrich Schlieman has done the world of scholarship a great disservice, locating Troy in Turkey.
