In this video we'll journey back to the late Bronze Age and explore Mycenaean Civilization in Greece and the wider Aegean world.  We'll also delve into the historical events that may have led to armed conflicts between Mycenaeans and Hittites and that may have ultimately served as the basis for Homer's great epics, the Iliad and the Odyssey.  Contents: 00:00 Contents and Introduction 02:43 Helladic Chronology Explained 03:42 Discovery of Mycenaean Culture 05:35 Geography of Greece 07:28 Early Mycenaeans 10:58 “Mycenae, Rich in Gold” 13:32 Linear B 16:54 Mycenaean Society and Material Culture 21:21 Mycenaean Palatial Centers and Major Kingdoms 23:39 Orchomenos 25:30 Gla 26:00 Thebes 27:00 Athens 29:10 Tiryns 29:49 Pylos 31:15 Daily Life, Food and Economy  36:41 Importance of Bronze 38:08 Warfare and Weapons 40:25 Hunting and Horses 41:47 Roads 42:26 Religion 45:28 Minoans and Maritime Trade 48:07 Earthquake on Thera 49:26 Mycenaeans on Crete 52:22 Mycenaean Political Unity? 53:31 Ahhiyawa and the Hittites 55:31 Attarissiya of Ahhiya 57:55 The Assuwan Confederacy  1:00:10 Piyamaradu and the Tawagalawa Letter 1:05:16 Alaksandu of Wilusa (Troy) 1:08:29 Ahhiyawa and Tudhaliya IV 1:11:20 Are Mycenaean Greece and Ahhiyawa the Same? 1:13:07 Mycenaean Trade with the World 1:15:08 The Uluburun Shipwreck 1:18:01 Fear and Dread 1:23:15 Desperate Times, Desperate Measures 1:25:53 Possible Theories for the Fall of Mycenaean Civilization 1:27:24 End of an Era 1:28:54 Thank You and Patrons <a rel="payment" href="https://www.patreon.com/historywithcy">Support the show</a>
