Where it came from
Published in 1977, this volume serves as a curated distillation of the writings of Heinrich Schliemann, the controversial nineteenth-century amateur archaeologist famous for his excavations at Hisarlik, which he identified as the site of ancient Troy. Leo Deuel compiled these memoirs to provide a narrative account of Schliemann's transformation from a merchant into a pioneering, albeit divisive, figure in the history of archaeology.
Deuel, a noted chronicler of archaeological history, aimed to balance Schliemann’s own dramatic, self-aggrandizing accounts with the historical context of his discoveries. The book reflects the complex legacy of a man whose methodology was often criticized by later scholars for damaging the very strata he sought to preserve, yet whose findings fundamentally captured the public imagination regarding the reality of the Homeric epics.
