'Iliad' and 'Odyssey' were written by ancient Greek poet Homer. Iliad depicts the Trojan war and 10 year siege of Troy by Greek forces. Odyssey is a sequel to Iliad which covers the journey of Greek hero Odysseus to home after the defeat of Troy. Now 'Aeneid' is a Classic poem written in Latin language by poet Virgil. It talks about Aeneas (a Trojan Hero) who traveled to Italy and became ancestor to Romans. Virgil was influenced by Homer in style of writing verses, division of books and also creating family history (genealogies) for his characters. He established connection between Romans and his predecessors Greeks.
