Troy
The famous city described by Homeros
Rediscovered by Schliemann, who can be seen as the father of modern archeology.
Being the first also means he made some terrible mistakes.
Wanting the treasure of king Priamus and convinced that the original Troy would be found in the lower level of the excavation,
he ate his way through leaving a terrible trench
