With blocks weighing as much as 80 tons, the lighthouse of
Alexandria turns out to have been quite heavy:
https://allthatsinteresting.com/lighthouse-of-alexandria-remains
The lighthouse of Alexandria occupies a very odd place in our
understanding of the world. I mean, it's pure legend yet historical
fact. At least we assume it's historical fact.
It's not like these stones are marked "Property of the Lighthouse
of Alexandria. If found, please return to the Lighthouse of
Alexandria."
It's kind of circular:-a We believe there was a lighthouse hence
anything we pull up is a piece of the lighthouse, and the piece
of the lighthouse confirms the existence of the lighthouse...
which is what identified the blocks as pieces of the lighthouse
that they confirm...
How do we really know what is legend and what is not?
Well. In this case, the story lacks magic. Lighthouses are
known, even from ancient times, and nobody attributes gods or
UFOs or unicorns to it so, what's not to believe?
At the same time the colossus of Rhodes is considered history
not mythology, with lots of statues known from ancient times,
but clearly many (most?) of the depictions are impossible.
Check out the image on this Wiki page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colossus_of_Rhodes
No question here:-a THAT is myth and not history!
A statue? A really big statue? Sure. Why not. But clearly NOT
that statue or anything like it....
There seems very little dividing our "History" from myth.

those were the classic 7 wonders right?
i think we should have a rhodes
type statue built where ships sail beneath its crotch.
i think bravos was inspired rhodes. free city of bravos, there will be a space colony named bravos some day.

Often mythology is based on history but the difference is
that history has multiple verifying sources or actual
tangible evidence. Mythology is just mythology.
Troy is a good example. It was mythology until the actual
city was found. Of course, the events mythology says
occurred there are still mythology since there is no
evidence they actually occurred.

Wrong.
There's no "Welcome to Troy" sign and MULTIPLE location had
previously been identified.
There's no only source, which contradicts what you previously
said.
"Multiple verifiable courses," you just said, and there's only
one for Troy. AND it includes gods. Are the ancient Greek gods
real? What about the magic in the story? Is that real too?

There is NOTHING that applies the name "Troy" to the pile
of rocks until a known fraud started digging there.

To prove... what? There's some rocks there? It was a tel.
It was a tel a thousand years ago. You want to find an
ancient city, look for a tel!
There' no "Welcome" to Troy but there's other places identified
as "Troy" before the one you're attributing to a story that is
pure mythology.
