Troy has almost certainly been discovered tho there still is debate as to which one of the 9 or more layers of destroyed cities is the one of the Iliad.

actually Troy has been discovered, and more recently a German archeologist named Korfman found that the hillside mound excavated by Schliemann was merely the hillside fortress, but a large town dating to 1200 BC confirms it was there.

Michael Wood's "in search of the trojan war" speculations are now considered accurate 20 years later...you might want to buy the series (I downloaded it from a Chinese yuku video site, if you google you might find it) or watch it on streaming video .
