Named after Mycenae, the legendary city of Agamemnon first excavated by Heinrich Schliemann in his search for the Greek heroes of the Trojan War, the Mycenaeans were the creators of a vibrant and powerful Aegean civilization which rose and fell between about 1600 and 1100 BC, during the Late Bronze Age. Schliemanns discovery of shaft graves belonging to a warrior elite, many of whom were buried wearing striking gold death-masks, sparked off serious investigation into the complex, wealthy and influential culture of this previously forgotten people who were ancestors of the Classical Greeks. This book, based on the latest research, traces their development and describes where the Mycenaeans came from, their major achievements, and assesses what we really know about their daily life and times. Much can be learned of their religion, political and social hierarchy, military and trading activities. Also surviving are striking painted pottery and other fascinating artefacts, architectural remains of fortress-palaces, and shrines and votive offerings. The book investigates its legendary links with the Trojan War and the various explanations for the eventual destruction of Mycenaean civilization and its decline into the Dark Ages.

For almost three thousand years, the Mycenaeans, ancestors of the classical Greeks, lay lost and forgotten beneath the soil of Greece. In 1876, however, a German businessman, Heinrich Schliemann, in his search for the great Mycenaean king Agamemnon and other heroes of the Trojan War, made an astounding discovery in Mycenae: inside the monumental Lion Gate he discovered shaft graves belonging to a warrior elite, many of whom were buried wearing striking gold funerary masks and armor. In this authoritative new survey, Schofield examines these initial discoveries and other material evidence from Mycenaean culture, including painted pottery, documents in Linear B script, and the remains of fortress-palaces, all of which have yielded important information about the social hierarchies, religion, and military and trading activities of this wealthy and sophisticated culture. The author also considers the factual basis for the Mycenaeans' legendary links with the Trojan War and the various explanations for the eventual decline of their civilization.
