A SUMMARY OF THE MYCENAEAN WORLD
• Bronze age Greece from 1600 B.C. – 1100 B.C.
• The age of Heroes and palace based kingdoms. Mycenae, Pylos, Tiyrns.
• The historical setting of the Iliad and Odyssey.
• The historicity of the Iliad is hotly debated.
• Probably the source of myths like the Minotaur at Knossos.
• The world collapsed in about 1100 B.C. – shortly after the Iliad.
