Where Troy Once Stood is a 1990 book by Iman Jacob Wilkens that argues that the city of Troy was located in England and that the Trojan War was fought between groups of Celts. The standard view is that Troy is located near the Dardanelles in Turkey. Wilkens claims that Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, though products of ancient Greek culture, are originally orally transmitted epic poems from Western Europe. Wilkens disagrees with conventional ideas about the historicity of the Iliad and the location and participants of the Trojan War.

rdfs:comment	Where Troy Once Stood (dt. Wo Troja einst stand) ist ein Buch von Iman Wilkens aus dem Jahr 1990. Darin vertritt Wilkens die These, dass die homerischen Epen Ilias und Odyssee der Herkunft des Stoffes nach westeuropäischen, nämlich ur-keltischen Ursprungs seien und die Stadt Troja sich nicht am Hellespont oder anderweitig in Kleinasien, sondern im Atlantischen Raum, und zwar an der Nordseeküste Englands befunden habe. Wilkens reiht sich damit ein unter diejenigen Autoren, die in den Handlungen der Epen Homers einen gräzisierten Stoff einer anderen Kultur vermuten und den Schauplatz des Trojanischen Krieges dann etwa in England oder Finnland (Felice Vinci, 1989) nachzuweisen suchen. (de) Iman Jacob Wilkens, Född den 13 mars 1936 i Apeldoorn Nederländerna, Död den 4 maj 2018 (fredag) - Roncq, Nord, Hauts-de-France, Frankrike, var en nederländsk författare. Wilkens studerade ekonomi vid Universiteit van Amsterdam, och flyttade 1966 till Frankrike. Sedan dess har han studerat Homeros. I en bok framför han teorin att staden Troja ursprungligen befann sig i England, och att Homeros verk Iliaden och Odysséen ursprungliga är episka dikter av västeuropeiskt ursprung. Han höll en föreläsning heter "The Trojan Kings of England" för en studentförening i Cambridge 1992.

(en) Waar eens Troje lag is een boek van de Nederlandse econoom Iman Jacob Wilkens. De schrijver wil met topografische, archeologische en historiografische middelen aantonen dat de stad Troje, bekend van de verhalen van Homerus, in Engeland lag en niet in Turkije zoals steeds is gedacht. Wilkens gaat uit van de letterlijke waarheid van Homerus' beschrijvingen en negeert wetenschappelijke inzichten van classici, die beweren dat Wilkens daarvoor geen steekhoudende argumenten heeft. De titel van het boek komt van de antieke Romeinse dichter Ovidius: (nl)
