  Encyclopedia: Mycenae   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
In the second millennium BC Mycenae was one of the major centres of Greek civilization, a military stronghold which dominated much of southern Greece.
In around 1350 BC the fortifications on the acropolis, and other surrounding hills, were rebuilt in a style known as "cyclopaean," because the blocks of stone used were so massive that they were thought in later ages to be the work of the one-eyed giants known as Cyclops.
By 1200 BC, however, the power of Mycenae was declining; during the 12th century, Mycenaean dominance collapsed.

 Aeschylus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Aeschylus (525—456 BC; Greek: Αισχυλος) was a playwright of ancient Greece.
That same year, he participated in the Battle of Marathon, and in 480 BC he fought at the Battle of Salamis.
Salamis was the subject of his play The Persians, written in 472 BC; it is possible that The Suppliants was written after this, making The Persians his earliest surviving play.

The earliest is The Persians, presented in 472 bc, a historical tragedy about the Battle of Salamís, with the scene laid in Persia at the court of the mother of King Xerxes I.
The Seven Against Thebes, produced in 467 bc, is based on a Theban legend concerning the conflict between the two sons of Oedipus, Eteocles and Polynices, for the throne of Thebes (see Seven Against Thebes).
The remaining three plays—Agamemnon, The Libation Bearers, and The Eumenides—produced in 458 bc, form the trilogy known as the Oresteia, or story of Orestes.

 Aeschylus - Crystalinks
The war was so important to Greeks and to Aeschylus himself that, upon his death around 456 BC, his epitaph included a reference to his participation in the Greek victory at Marathon but not to his success as a playwright.
His tragedies, first performed about 500 BC, were presented as trilogies, or groups of three, usually bound together by a common theme, and each trilogy was followed by a satyr drama (low comedy involving a mythological hero, with a chorus of satyrs).
Attributed to Aeschylus in antiquity, it is generally considered by modern scholars to be the work of an unknown 4th century BC playwright, quite possibly Ion, Aeschylus' son.

 Aeschylus the Father of Tragedy
The 'Father of Tragedy,' Aeschylus was born in 524 or 525 BC in the city of Eleusis.
Aeschylus himself did not care about his fame: he wanted to be remembered not for his tragedies, but for the fact that he had fought at Marathon in 490 BC together with his brother Cynegerirus (another borther was Ameinias).
In 468 BC Sophocles appears as a serious opponent and seems to be a reason of Aeschylus anger as Sophocles becomes a winner in a contest.

Although the first written record of the games dates to 776 B.C., their origins go back at least five hundred years earlier and are linked to religious events well before that.
The games were held every four years and records show that the games in 776 BC consisted of only one footrace held on one day.
Although the games attracted participants from throughout the Classical Greek world and Magna Grecia (see map) the games themselves were not lengthened beyond one day until 472 BC when they were extended to four days and, later, to five.
