THE MYCENAEANS
The citadel of Mycenae on the Peloponnese of mainland Greece has given its name to the period - and the palace at the citadel of Mycenae is larger than those of the other known Mycenaean citadels of the Mycenaean states at Tiryns and Pylos, so it can claim some leading role.
Given their walls and hilltop positions, the Mycenaean citadels differ significantly in layout from the unwalled Minoan palaces lying in the plains; whereas Mycenae itself lay a good distance from its own harbour, the Cretan palaces and villas did not necessarily lie far from the harbours. Where the Minoans spread their architectural forms across the landscape, the Mycenaeans adapted their architecture to the landscape, preferring hills to plains. While seals and sealings are typical of the Minoan age, weapons appear in abundance in the tombs at Mycenae. One cannot escape from thinking of the Mycenaeans as robber-barons and pirates differing distinctly from the selfconfident Minoan manager-rulers who organized trade networks in the Aegean. Yet each Mycenaean king (άναξ/άηαχ = Mycenaean wa-na-kd) also maintained the iconographic traditions of the past in his own city, as, for example, on the “lion gate” at Mycenae.
