German archaeologists have made new discoveries at modern day Hisarlik, northwest Turkey – ancient Troy. The finds further confirm the area occupied during the Bronze Age was not limited to the citadel; Troy VI and VII were much larger than originally thought. The three year research project at Troy – lead by Prof. Ernst Pernicka, from the University of Tubingen’s Institute of Pre- and Early History – sees scholars focus on the analysis and publication of materials found since the university started excavations at the site in 1988.
