The Time Tunnel (1966)

Goofs

Revenge of the Gods

The Time Tunnel

Edit

Continuity

When the soldier in the tunnel throws his sword toward the control panel, Jiggs steps forward and stands over it. When Kirk goes over to it, Jiggs is nowhere in sight.

Factual errors

Though Tony and Doug meet the ancient Greek warrior Odysseus, he is called here by the name the Romans would only give him centuries after his death: Ulysses. Also the Greek gods Zeus, Hera, Athena and Aphrodite are referred to as their later Roman equivalents: Jupiter, Juno, Minerva and Venus.
Paris is killed by Odysseus; in the original drama, he was killed by Philoctetes.

Revealing mistakes

When the soldier points to Troy, a shot of the city of Athens is shown instead. Also, Athens is shown as it would look like in 1966, not during the Trojan War.
While Sardis and Tony sword-fight in Ulysses' tent, a large shield is struck by Sardis' sword, scraping the brown paint off and revealing the white material beneath. Moments later, in defeat Sardis throws a lance, the shield is intact.
Doug is supposedly being tortured by being stretched on the rack. But when Tony frees him, it's obvious to the viewer that there was no tension on the device and Doug was not being stretched.

Anachronisms

Mounted warriors are shown using saddles with stirrups. Saddles did not come into use in Europe until 200 B.C. and stirrups about 650 A.D., 1,000 and 1,850 years respectively after the events depicted here. The stirrup is what made mounted warriors practical; around 1200 B.C., horses would have been limited to drawing war chariots.
The tunic Paris is wearing has a zipper at the back - an item that had yet to be invented.
The first soldier Tony and Doug meet has what it looks like an iron sword. The time period is the Greek Golden Age, thus their weapons should be made of bronze.

Errors in geography

The devices on the shields of Ulysses' men is the Greek capital "L" for Lakedaemonia (Sparta). Ulysses was king of Ithaca, not Sparta.
