Answer 1

The story is by Homer not Virgil.

Answer 2

sounds like a homework assignment to me, but:

The Trojan Horse was a mythological device used in Homer's Illiad. It was a large wooden horse on wheels, which was delivered to the gates of Troy as supposed tribute by the Greeks. Secretly however, the Horse was made hollow, and filled with Greek soldiers, who came out at night and opened the city gates to let in the Greek army and attack the city.
