The document provides instructions for assembling a papercraft model of the Trojan Horse from the epic poem The Iliad. It describes how the Greek soldiers hid inside the giant wooden horse as a trick to enter the walled city of Troy from the inside and cause its fall. The instructions guide the reader through cutting out and folding the individual parts before gluing them together to construct the full model, including the horse's body, legs, head, tail, and a soldier to place inside.

The giant wooden horse is brought inside the city walls
by the Trojan army as a spoil of war, to be dedicated to
the goddess of Troy... Late at night, the Greek soldiers
hiding inside the giant horse come out, and Troy falls
from the inside.
The Trojan Horse, made famous by the epic poem of
the Iliad, has not actually been found. However, the
existence of Troy was proven in 1873 by the diggings
