	Introduction to Pre-Hellenistic Greece - Part 2
		Helladic pottery as well as the buildings and the now- deciphered Linear B tablets are being used to put together what Mycenaean civilization looked like.
		The Early Helladic period is defined as the years 2750 BC to 2000 BC.
		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 Late Helladic I Pottery of the Southwestern Peloponnesos and Its Local Characteristics.
		Chapter I is a detailed account of the Late Helladic I pottery from deposits excavated at settlement-sites in the SW part of the Peloponnesos, among them Voroulia-Tragana (where an important closed LH I group of domestic material was found) and Nichoria (where evidence for a stratigraphic distinction between LH I and LH IIA was produced).
		The strength of the local Middle Helladic ceramic traditions which survived into the Late Helladic I period is assessed and reference is made to parallel developments in other regions of the Greek Mainland, particularly the eastern Peloponnesos.

	Helladic - Information at Halfvalue.com
		Helladic is a modern term of archaeological origin to identify a sequence of periods characterizing the culture of mainland ancient Greece during the Bronze Age.
		The Early Helladic is marked by the arrival in Greece of an agricultural population that did not speak an Indo-European language, whose culture soon diverged from its origins in the Cyclades.
		Important Early Helladic sites are clustered on the Aegean shores of the mainland in Boeotia and Argolid (Lerna, Pefkakia, Thebes, Tiryns) or coastal islands such as Aegina (Kolonna) and Euboea (Lefkandi, Manika) and are marked by pottery showing Western Anatolian influences and the introduction of the fast-spinning version of the potter's wheel.

		The Late Helladic is the period of the Mycenaeans, their first appearance in the archaeological record during the seventeenth century BCE.
		The Middle Helladic period is clearly distinct from the Early Helladic directly preceding it, and lays the foundation for the Late Helladic and the Mycenaeans to come.
		The Late Mycenaean Age was a progression of the trends and events that began in the Early Mycenaean.

	The Greek Age of Bronze - Shields
		These shields are well attested since the early period of the Late Helladic when their utilization was at the apogee.
		Indeed the "figure- of- eight shield" remained as decorative motif and cult simbol till the end of Late Helladic period, while the large round or oval shield with two cuts on sides, which was named by the scholars as "Dipylon shield", was still used during the Geomeric period.
		Another type of body-shield used during the late Helladic period is the circular or oval one with two cuts on both sides which allow a better utilization of the shield during the fighting with sword and spear.

	Greek History
		Out of this interaction between the Cretan and Helladic cultures developed a Mycenaean palace culture, which was initially dependent on Cretan models.
		This new culture was named after the powerful city of Mycenae, the city of the legendary Agamemnon who was one of the leaders of the expedition against Troy.
		This period is different from the middle Helladic one, not only because a sudden explosion of wealth took place, but also because throughout Hellas palaces were built.

	The Myceneans
		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 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.

	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").
		Both the shapes (the favorites being the Vapheio cup, the semiglobular cup, the alabastron, and the piriform jar) and patterns of this ware are largely derived from LM IA pottery.
		A variety of Matt-painted wares continue from late Middle Helladic into LH I. For example, most of the large closed vessels of LH I which bear any painted decoration at all are Matt-painted.

		These aims are achieved by means of a rigorous contextual analysis of the funerary data and the integration of archaeological and bioarchaeological data.
		I suggest that the principle structuring mechanism during the Middle Helladic period was probably kinship rather than personal status.
		During the transition to Late Helladic, however, social divisions, as indicated in grave construction and wealth, became more apparent.

		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.

		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).

		In the Cyclades, pottery was increasingly influenced by Crete, with beak-spouted jugs, the askos, spouted jars, rhytons and cups.
		During the Late Helladic I and II, shapes and decoration in mainland Greece were derived from Minoan pottery, possibly made by immigrant Minoan potters.

	The Early Helladic Period in the Argolid
		Early, Middle, and Late Helladic periods distinguished on the basis of stratigraphy, and the account of the excavations, was published in 1921, provided a documented framework of relative chronology.
		The Early Helladic inhabitants, some time after their first arrival, had levelled the upper surface of the hill, filling hollows and dumping much of the debris over the crest along the south side, and perhaps elsewhere, in order to make a larger and better ordered space for their houses.
		Although the transition from Early Helladic III to Middle Helladic appearsnow to have been accomplished at many places without extreme violence, the changes that did occur must not be underestimated.

		Late Cycladic III (LCIII) is equivalent to the Third Palace and Postpalatial Periods.
		On the mainland the Third Palace Period comprises the Late Helladic IIB (LHIIB) and Late Helladic III (LHIIIA1, LHIIIA2, LHIIIB1 and LHIIIB2), while the Postpalatial Period is Late Helladic IIIC (LHIIIC).

		The beginning of the Middle Helladic period was initially linked to the destruction or the abandonment of Early Helladic settlements.
		Habitation in the settlements that were occupied until the end of the Early Helladic period continued normally while during the Middle Helladic period many new settlements were founded in sites similar to those preferred in the Early Bronze Age.
