Sparta started the Peloponnesian War, but according to First Maccabees 12.21, the Spartans and Jews are kin, both being descended from Abraham. So it wasn't the Jews but their cousins the Spartans.
Helen was queen of Sparta before and after her stay in Troy, so she's another cousin.

Josephus mentions something similar.
Another legend via Cleodemus Malchus is that a grandson of Abraham and Keturah, Epher, accompanied Hercules into North Africa. His daughter married Hercules and had a son Diodorus.
