	The Myceneans
		The Late Helladic Period, ~1550 BC-1150 BC The transition between the Middle and Late Helladic periods is indistinguishable, for the Greek settlers had begun building the rudiments of a civilization earlier in the millenium.
		The Early Helladic Period, ~2750-2000 BC Somewhere between 3000 BC and 2000 BC, the lands of Greece were settled by a metal-using agricultural people who spoke a language other than Indo-European.
		Their contact with the Minoans was instantly fruitful; they began to urbanize somewhere in the Middle Helladic period and translated their culture into a civilization.

		The Early Helladic III levels at Lerna produced, in addition to the typical pottery of that period, a few examples of a pottery type known as "Minyan" ware, which was sometimes wheel-made and is a common feature of the Middle Helladic period.
		In the Early Helladic III period (Lerna IV), the inhabitants (who supposedly destroyed the earlier settlement) covered the site of the House of Tiles with a low tumulus surrounded by a ring of stones, as though to mark off a sacred area.
		At the end of the Middle Helladic period, 2 rectangular shaft graves were cut into the tumulus of the House of Tiles, indicating that the meaning of that monument had been forgotten.

		The beginning of the Middle Helladic period is marked by the immigration of the Minyans.
		Settlers represented an amalgam of surviving Neolithic, non-Greek cultures of the Early Helladic period, the immigrants from the end of the Early Helladic period, the Minyan immigrants of the Middle Helladic era, plus elements from Anatolia and perhaps Crete.
		The Middle Helladic period continued the process of migration and movement; it too was an unsettled period.

	Introduction to Pre-Hellenistic Greece - Part 2
		The Middle Helladic period (2000 BC - 1550 BC) and the Late Helladic period (1550 BC - 1150 BC) is the period we are most concerned with, the period which rivals Hellenistic Greece in its artistic and cultural achievements.
		The Early Helladic period is defined as the years 2750 BC to 2000 BC.
		As a consequence, the level of culture dropped and this is what archeologists see at the beginning of the Middle Helladic period.

		The present thesis is concerned the Middle Helladic period in Boiotia with the specific goal of detecting elements of social organization.
		The study of this period has been seriously neglected, since it is outshadowed by the preceding and succeeding periods, the Early Helladic and the Late Helladic periods, which have produced impressive archaeological remains, as well as by the relative concentration of research in Thebes.
		Thus, by encompassing the data resulting from fieldwork to the present day and creating a new synthesis, the necessary groundwork was created for a comprehensive interpretation of social patterns during Middle Helladic period in Boiotia.

	Middle Helladic Period-Arts and crafts
		Shaft Grave period: the period from the Middle Helladic III to the Late Helladic IIA, that is the transition from the Middle to the Late Bronze Age.
		The development of the arts is characterized by a considerable retrogression in comparison with the Early Helladic period, by the rareness of the raw materials and the lack of high artistic creation such as the artistic expression of Minoan Crete.
		During the largest part of the Middle Helladic period there is also total absence of rare materials such as semiprecious stones and ivory.

	Early Bronze Age Mainland Greece
		The Early Helladic I period is not well known primarily because excavations don't go so far deep as to find it and because the Early Helladic II folk liked to landscape a lot, destroying earlier remains.
		The Early Helladic I period at Tsoungiza is represented by just a few pits and a cistern, though there seems to be continuity between Early Helladic I and Early Helladic II.
		The pottery of the Early Helladic I period shows a marked preference for red slipped surfaces, sometimes burnished to a bright sheen.

	Shaft Grave Art: Modern Problems
		They brought their people from a comparatively backward Middle Helladic existence into the Late Helladic period, aptly named “the Mycenaean Age.” Their houses, tombs and pottery were at first rather poor, since they preferred to lavish their wealth on precious weapons, bowls, ornaments, etc., which they took with them to their graves.
		One can trace all those developments during the span of the Grave Circles—from their inception towards the end of the Middle Helladic period till the special treatment accorded to Circle A during the Late Helladic III B period.
		The inlay technique first appeared in Greece among the Shaft Grave artifacts, and continued through the early Mycenaean Age, and possibly until the destruction of the Late Helladic palaces towards the end of the LH period.

		Andreas, are the remains of a prehistoric settlement that existed from the Early Helladic to the Geometric period.
		The Cynurians, who were probably an Ionian people, settled in the region during the Middle Helladic period, from 1900 BC onwards; this seems likely from the cult evidence (worship of Achilles and Ino) and the presence of Minyans in the southern part of Cynuria.
		In the Early Byzantine period the north wall was extended further to the north.

		On the mainland of Greece, the Middle Bronze Age (or Middle Helladic period) was ushered in by an invasion from the north and possibly the east.
		The Late Bronze Age on the mainland (i.e., the late Helladic period) is also identified as the Mycenaean Age, from the citadel of power (Mycenae) dominant in Greece during this period.
		Of the seven major settlements in the Minoan-Mycenaean period (Troy 1-7) identified by Blegen, Troy 2 is particularly interesting because of treasure Schliemann claimed to have found at that level.

	Mycenae and the Bronze Age of Greece
		Evidence of a Middle Helladic town was found down the slope but all earlier buildings had been removed from the summit prior to the building of the palace during the Late Helladic IIIA period.
		The Late Helladic period (1600-1100 BC) saw the site reach new heights of splendour with the construction of the palace and its immense walls (later Greeks believed that they must have been built by the Cyclopes).
		This is the period conventionally known as Late Helladic IIIA-IIIB— principally based on the styles of pottery in use at the time.

	Mycenaean Pictorial Art and Pottery
		The ware which most closely distinguishes the pottery of this phase from that of the late Middle Helladic period is a fine ware painted with patterns in lustrous paint in a dark-on-light style (the so-called "LH I style").
		There is currently a good deal of debate as to where the first recognizably Mycenaean (as opposed to Middle Helladic) style of the Late Helladic I period arose.
		Central Greece, however, is still characterized by pottery more Helladic than Minoanizing, a clear indication that the shift in ceramics caused by Minoan influence travelled gradually rather than suddenly, from south to north and probably from the coast toward the interior.

	Perseus Site: Mycenae
		Habitation continued throughout the Early and Middle Helladic periods and the first palace complex was probably built at the beginning of the Late Helladic period.
		The citadel and palace of Mycenae were destroyed at the end of the Late Helladic IIIB, although some occupation continued at the site during the Late Helladic IIIC period.
		In the Late Helladic IIIA period the fortifications probably followed the natural boundary of the hilltop.

		Pottery found around and inside the grave circle belong to the gray, black, yellow Minyan and matt-painted wares associated with the Middle Helladic III Period; the latest burials in the grave circle may belong to the Late Helladic I period.
		Mycenae is famous as the seat of a royal family that controlled much of the northeastern Peloponnese by the end of the Middle Helladic Period.
		An altar and various Late Helladic IIIb cult objects were discovered in the area near Tountas' House.

	Early Bronze Age Mainland Greece
		The brilliant culture of the Early Helladic II period, with its Corridor Houses, sophisticated metallurgy, and widespread contacts, failed to achieve a literate, palace-centered civilization such as developed on Crete at the very beginning of the Middle Bronze Age, and instead collapsed.
		Despite the very complicated situation of the transition from the Early Helladic II period to the Early Helladic III period, there are significant cultural differences between the two periods.
		It is interesting to speculate whether the Early Helladic system was capable of such a development.

		He does not question the theory that the Middle Helladic people were ancestors of the Mycenaeans, but he adds his theory that the people of Early Helladic III were "closely akin to the Middle Helladics and thus also of direct or indirect parentage to the Mycenaean Greeks" (Caskey 1960:302).
		The development of the types of pottery along with the use of the potter's wheel in Middle Helladic are an indication of the growth and progress of the society in general.
		Pottery of the earliest Middle Minoan styles...now makes its appearance on the mainland....There is a revival of trade with the Cyclades....[T]he transition from the first to the second architectural period at Phylakopi is parallel to...the change from Period IV to Period V at Lerna.
