Mycenaean Greece (c. 1900 BC E– c. 1100 BCE) is a cultural period of Bronze Age Greece taking its name from the archaeological site of Mycenae in northeastern Argolis, in the Peloponnese of southern Greece.
Athens, Pylos, Thebes, and Tiryns are also important Mycenaean sites.
The last phase of the Bronze Age in Ancient Greece, it is the historical setting of much ancient Greek literature and myth, including the epics of Homer.
