Lane Fox Nods

Robin Lane Fox, Homer and His Iliad (New York: Basic Books, 2023), p. 152 (note omitted):
Among this uncertainty, one life-long expert, Sinclair Hood, has championed a bold alternative: Troy VIIb.2, a level which also shows a few signs of burning by fire.
Id., p. 153:
Despite its difficulties, an attractive aspect of Stuart Hood’s theory, that the end of Troy VIIb.2 inspired the Greek tale of the Trojan war, is that it occurred when the Hittite empire had already disappeared.
His name was Sinclair Hood.
