Who was Sinon What was his role in the greek tragedy?
, a son of Aesimus, was a Greek warrior during the Trojan War. He pretended he had deserted the Greeks and, as a Trojan captive, told the Trojans that the wooden horse the Greeks had left was intended as a gift to the gods to ensue their safe voyage home. He told them that the horse was made so big that the Trojans would not be able to move it into their city, because if they did they would be invincible to later Greek invasion. His story convinced the Trojans. The Trojans brought the Trojan Horse into their city. Inside the horse were Greek soldiers, who, as night fell, disembarked from the horse and opened the gates of Troy, thus sealing the fate of Troy.
