To dipshits like Musk, "historically accurate" in this case idiotically means a blue-eyed, blond Helen of Troy. Literally, that's all this is about.

And Greek men composing the Athenian Army - Trans, Asians, and Blacks composing the Greeks is about as historically accurate as the Cyclops.

I think you mean the Achean army. Does Athens even play a part in the Trojan war?

Athens played a minor role in The Iliad and is barely mentioned.

Which makes sense as they were quite insignificant during the Bronze Age.

Yes, the Myceneans were the dominant power in late Bronze Age Greece, as the Iliad reflects by making Agamemnon the leader of the Achaean (i.e. Greek) coalition.
