 That there was a lost Latin source grew clearer in the late nineteenth century, as scholars compared narrative poems like the Middle English "The Seege or Batayle of Troy" with Konrad von Würzburg's "Trojanische Krieg" and with versions in Old Norse and in Bulgarian, and found that they shared details in the opening episodes that were not to be found in Dares nor in the famous "Roman de Troie" of Benoît de Sainte-Maure.The themes included the dream of Hecuba and the birth of Paris, his Judgement of the goddesses—with varying degrees of independence in this oft-told material—and his carrying off of Helen, and the youth of Achilles.In some of the vernacular poems, traces of Latin declensions in proper names betrayed an unidentified Latin source.
