The epic poem "The Iliad” describes a large city called Troy that was destroyed during a great war. Hisarlik in northwest Turkey has been recognized as the site of Troy since ancient times.
Persian King Xerxes and Greek Emperor Alexander the Great visited the site, as did many ancient travelers.
Recent scientific investigation revealed that cracks in the walls of Hisarlik show that they were likely damaged by an earthquake.
What conclusion can modern historians draw about the city of Troy based upon this evidence?

Hisarlik must be the site of Troy because it was a tourist attraction.
“The Iliad” is credible and reliable because it mentions the city of Troy by name.
Future technology is unlikely to solve the mystery of the location of the city of Troy.
Analysis of the cracks in the walls of Hisarlik may change conclusions about the site.
