The epic poem of Iliad on a map: All the Homeric heroes and their origins

March 19, 2023

This map is inspired by the “Achaeans and Trojans” map on Greek Mythology Link, a website created by Carlos Parantas, author of the "Genealogical Guide to Greek Mythology".

It shows all the heroes of the Iliad and their origins in a unique representation of the major and minor characters of the immortal Homeric epic, both on the side of the Achaeans and the Trojans.
