Friday lecture by PhD student Joos Melander, Saxo Institute.
Throughout the disciplinary history of the prehistoric and classical archaeologies of Greece, the main points around which narratives of the Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age of Greece revolve have been the destruction of the Mycenaean Palatial centers around 1200 BCE and the emergence of the city states half a millennium later. During the past decades, however, it has become increasingly clear that this only applies to a limited part of Greece centered on Athens.Participants & Organizers
