Answer:
The Greek poet Homer used them in two of his epic poems, "Iliad" and "The Odyssey."
iliad = ilium = troy = present day turkey.
iliad is the Helen of Troy story
Sparta's Queen Helen ran off with Troy's Prince Paris.
Helen's husband Menelaus & brother Agamemnon, King of Mycenae fought Troy
Agamemnon was joined by the Greek heroes Achilles,
Odysseus
, Nestor and Ajax & 1000's of ships from the Greek world
Achilles killed Troy's King Priam's son & Prince Paris' older brother Hector
Achilles' wanted revenge against Hector for killing his dear friend Patroclus.
Paris later killed Achilles by shooting him in the heel (his only weak spot) with an arrow
Menelaus & brother Agamemnon won by using a large wooden Tro-jan horse to sneak inside the gates of Troy
The
Odyssey
is the story of
Odysseus
taking 10 years to take an often-interrupted journey home back to Ithaca, later along with his son Telemachus to rescue his wife, Penelope, from men who wanted to marry her

Explanation:
That is the exact facial expression I had when I was a child. I know how it feels. That sadness, sorrow, misery and pain. As the child walked towards the garbage bin, I quietly followed his steps. The smell was unbearably foul. What is he possibly doing? Scavenging for metal tins? Or maybe plastic bottles? The next thing happened was an 'I can't believe my eyes'. That boy with patched clothes was eating the food waste right from the garbage.
I once had a tough life. Lucky for me, I was adopted by a rich family. This boy faced much more trouble than I did. I went after the child after seeing him searching from bins to bins. 'Care for some buns?,' I asked. WOAH! He turned in shock, not expecting strangers. At first the boy was confused and refused to accept my kindness, but eventually after persuading him for a few times, he took it and walked away.
Feeling unsatisfied and curious, I pursue on tracking his path. With confusion, I wonder what was he still doing by the bins. After a few questions and answers, I found out that he was an orphan and his mom is disabled.They live in a small wooden house that was waiting for it's time to collapse. He was the only hope to support his siblings of 5. His story was heartbreaking that I tears slowly rolled down my cheeks. The only thing on my mind was this kid needs help!
Luckily I have a friend who work at the public welfare center. The boy's family was supported by the government and was moved to a new house at a rural area. They begin a fresh new life there. He and his siblings was given an education. The boy did a part-time work in order to support the family finances. I could see his face becoming radiant day by day.
I would visit them twice a month to check if they are comfortable with the new life. Turns up there is nothing to be worried about as result was positive. His family was starting to adapt to the new surrounding. His determination and 'never giving up' actions had helped his family survived. Before I left after my last visit, he thanked me. I could barely heard him saying 'Well, with everything that happened, I hope that I will never face sadness again'.
