Subject Description | This subject provides students with an introduction to the Bronze Age cultures of Minoan Crete and Mycenaean Greece, through detailed study of the archaeological remains. Students should become familiar with topics such as state formation, palace economics, cultural development, local and international trade, burial customs, religion and the collapse of these societies. Because these two cultures are known primarily through excavations, study of the artifacts also entails analysis of archaeological methodology and problems of interpretation. |
