Heinrich Schliemann总结

Heinrich Schliemann(出生于1822年1月6日,Neubukow Mecklenburg-Schwerin-died 12月26日,1890年,那不勒斯,意大利),德国的考古学家和挖掘机特洛伊,迈锡尼,Tiryns。作为一个男孩,他爱荷马的诗,他终于学会了古代和现代希腊和许多其他语言。在克里米亚战争的军事承包商他足够的财富在36岁退休,并致力于考古学。1873年,在Hisarlık病重。,he discovered the remains of ancient Troy (verifying the historical event of the Trojan War) and a treasure of gold jewelry (“Priam’s Treasure”), which he smuggled out of the country. Because the Ottoman government prevented his return, he began excavating Mycenae in Greece, where he found more invaluable remains and treasures. He and Wilhelm Dörpfeld (1853–1940) resumed work at Hisarlık in 1878, exposing the stratigraphy more clearly and advancing archaeological technique. In 1884 they excavated the great fortified site at Tiryns. Schliemann’s excavations helped to lengthen considerably the perspective of history and to popularize archaeology. His contributions were genuine, though his written accounts contain many self-serving fabrications.
