소개

하인리히 슐리만(독일어: Heinrich Schliemann, 1822년 1월 6일 ~ 1890년 12월 26일)은 독일 출신의 사업가 및 고고학자로 트로이아와 미케네 유적을 발굴한 것으로 잘 알려져 있다.

Johann Ludwig Heinrich Julius Schliemann was a German businessman and an influential archaeologist. He was an advocate of the historicity of places mentioned in the works of Homer and an archaeological excavator of Hisarlık, now presumed to be the site of Troy, along with the Mycenaean sites Mycenae and Tiryns. His work lent weight to the idea that Homer's Iliad reflects historical events. Schliemann's excavation of nine layers of archaeological remains has been criticized as destructive of significant historical artefacts, including the layer that is believed to be the Homeric Troy.
