Troia

Etymology 1
Borrowed from.

Pronunciation

 * Per the imperial-era grammarian Terentianus Maurus, the first syllable contains a short vowel; it is heavy because of the following double consonant /jj/. This is consistent with the etymology from the Greek form Τροίᾱ (with a diphthong in the first syllable). Some dictionaries mark the O with a macron as a misleading indication of the heavy scansion of the first syllable.
