To what extent is there a connection between myth and historical reality concerning the Sack of Troy in the period of classical Athens.

This is an art history assignment, not only focused on a specific research question but also relies on the use of evidence in the form of artifacts and iconography to prove the analysis and points.

It revolves around artifacts, the only one that is required is Lydos’s (potter/artist) Tondo depicting the Recovery of Helen by Menelaus. (https://museum.cornell.edu/collections/european/ancient/recovery-helen-menelaos)

Integrate that artifact into the discussion of the Myths and their representation in society in comparison to recorded historical fact. Use other artifacts as well that you find to add to the discussion.
