Lechevalier was a French architect and archaeologist who visited the site of Troy in the late 18th century, and his book provides a detailed account of his observations and discoveries.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a historical overview of the city of Troy, including its legendary founding by the hero King Priam, its role in the Trojan War, and its eventual decline and abandonment. Lechevalier draws on both ancient sources and his own observations to paint a vivid picture of the city and its inhabitants.The second part of the book is a detailed description of the physical landscape of the plain of Troy. Lechevalier describes the topography of the area, including the hills and valleys, rivers and streams, and the various archaeological sites that he visited. He also provides detailed drawings and maps of the area, which are still used by archaeologists and historians today.Overall, Description Of The Plain Of Troy (1791) is an important work in the history of archaeology and the study of ancient civilizations. Lechevalier’s detailed descriptions and drawings provide valuable insights into the physical and cultural landscape of Troy, and his work continues to be studied and referenced by scholars today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
