Troy is yet to be found
When I was thirteen, The Gold of Troy by Robert Pane caught my imagination with its tale of Heinrich Schliemann and his discovery of the ruins of Troy in 1870. I was struck not just by the discovery, but how he discovered it, as a rank amateur, not an archaeologist. He was a fan of Homer and followed clues in The Iliad.
