Troy Mills

From the Foundation of the City, Volume One by Titus Livius, translated by George Baker.

Book One, Part One It has been handed down to us as a certain fact that the Greeks, when they had taken Troy, treated the Trojans with the utmost severity; with the exception, however, of two of them, Aeneas and Antenor, towards whom they exercised none of the rights of conquest.

This lenity they owed partly to an old connection of hospitality, and partly to their having been all along inclined to peace and to the restoration of Helen.

These chiefs experienced afterwards great varieties of fortune.

Antenor, being joined by a multitude of the Hynicians, who had been driven out of Paphlagonia in a civil war, and having lost their king, Pylaemenes, at Troy, were at a loss both for a settlement and a leader, came to the innermost bay of the Adriatic Sea, and expelling the Iuganians, who then inhabited the tract between the Alps and the sea, settled the Trojans and Hynicians in the possession of the country.

The place where they first landed is called Troy, and from thence the Trojan canton also has its name.

The nation in general were called Hynicians.

Aeneas, driven from home by the same calamity, but conducted by the Fates to an establishment of more importance, came first to Macedonia; thence, in search of a settlement, he sailed to Sicily, and from Sicily proceeded with his fleet to the country of the Laurentians.
