	Mycenae
		The ancient city of Mycenae was once thought to exist only in ancient Greek legend and the epic poetry of Homer.
		The city of Mycenae was the center of a large and powerful Mycenaean Greek civilization, which existed from circa 1900 B.C.E. to circa 1125 B.C.E. It is located in the south central part of what is present day Greece.
		Mycenae is also known for its ancient builders.

	Mycenae - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Since Mycenae was the capital of a state that ruled or dominated much of the eastern Mediterranean world, the rulers must have placed their stronghold in this less populated and more remote region for its defensive value.
		Legend asserts that Mycenae was founded by Perseus, grandson of king Acrisius of Argos, son of Acrisius' daughter, Danae.
		Agamemnon inherited Mycenae and Menelaus was regent in Sparta.

	Among the ancients - Newsday.com
		It was early April and the stalwarts of the Grecian landscape, the olive trees, stood in silvery contrast to the almost neon greens and yellows of the new grass and abundant wildflowers.
		It was Mycenae's King Agamemnon who led the Greek forces in the Trojan War, triggered by the abduction of Helen, the wife of Agamemnon's brother Menelaus, king of the nearby Peloponnesian city of Sparta.
		But Mycenae is what the later Greeks of the Archaic and Classical periods considered their own ancient history, the source of their own founding myths.

		Judging from the positions of Steffen's four highways, Mycenae's main roads kept it in touch with the eastern slopes of the northern Argive plain from the Suleimani ridge in the north to the area of the Argive Heraion to the south.
		To judge from distribution of main highways, Mycenae's region consists of the eastern slopes of the northern Argive plain and the upland plains between the Argolid and the Corinthia except the Berbati valley.
		Mycenae's primary agricultural interests may therefore have been in the hilly country to the north and east of the citadel rather than in the plain itself.

	Greek Travelogue - Mycenae
		Orestes was caught between the old and new order of Greek gods: Apollo who represented the new Zeus religion, and the Furies who were three gray-haired daughters of Earth, serpent-haired, fl-skinned crones who dressed in gray raiment and had voices like those of baying dogs.
		Mycenae was the most powerful kingdom in the late Bronze Age and gave its name to the entire Aegean civilization of the time.
		The ruins of Mycenae are beyond the winding road in front of me, covering a hilltop and looking camouflaged, its tan coloring blending into the rolling hills.

		Compare the lions in front of some public (and ostentatious private) buildings today, such as the New York Public Library Lions.
		The Lion Gate itself was protectd by a large postern, or outcrop in the wall, to the right of the gate (as you went in).
		Mycenae also had a small postern gate to the rear to allow defenders to sally out and attack the attackers, and a secret tunnel which allowed the defenders access to underground sources of water outside the circuit of the walls.

		The easily recognizable 'sauceboat' is one of the most common of these new shapes, plainly decorated with a glossy dark paint.
		Despite the innovations in pottery and arrival of the Minyans, life in Greece did not change much during the Middle Helladic period; farmers still tended their fields in the old ways and settlements remained small (7).
		The well-known Lion Gate leading into the walled city of Mycenae anticipates future monumental relief carvings, and paintings on palace walls show an interest in the animal motifs and depictions of pattern and movement that will be seen again in vase painting.

		So let's re-cap: Pheidippides has already run 280 miles in 2 days, fought in a tremendous battle, and now is being sent on what amounts to a 25-mile cool-down run with the small task of telling the nervous Athenians to call off their impending pyrotechnics.

		The system, developed by Siemens and Fujitsu, will first be tested in Thessaloniki and Mycenae and should be available at all sites by summer 2008.
		The ministry also unveiled new automated ticketing systems for 18 major tourist sites, which will cut down on waiting time for visitors.
		Greece is expected to draw more than 15 million tourists this year -- more than its total population of around 11 million -- but its famed cultural sites have until now been slow to introduce technological support for visitors, such as the audio guides frequently used at museums abroad.

	ABCs of Greek Architecture - New York Times
		In Mycenaean Greece, 1,000 years before the classical period, the chief building of a citadel was the king's palace, as seen at Mycenae, Tiryns, and Pylos.
		In these palace complexes the central feature is the megaron -- a large rectangular room with the long walls extended to form the sides of an open porch, the roof of which is supported by columns.
		The columns of the early temples were made of wood, and, later, when marble began to be used, constructional features appropriate to the use of timber were copied as decoration in the new material.

		Schliemann later excavated Mycenae, the home of Agamemnon, a king in the Iliad.
		Mycenae was an outpost of the great Minoan-Mycenaean culture which was a powerful empire in the Mediterranean and Aegean seas from 3000-1250 B.C. Mycenae borrowed culturally and artistically from the Minoans.
