Laocoön, a seer and priest, was deeply suspicious of the enormous wooden horse that the Greeks left in Troy and cautioned the Trojans not to accept this strange offering. But their fate was already sealed — the gods granted the Greeks victory and punished the priest for threatening their success. Noah Charney explores how Laocoön’s tragic tale inspired countless artists across the ancient world.

Lesson by Noah Charney, directed by Michael Kalopaidis, Zedem Media.

Can you figure out which chest of pearls is the ransom? Dan Finkel shows how.
