By this time, archaeological data suggests, the Mycenaen civilization was in decline, under siege from waves of brutal newcomers surging down from the north. Thanks to Schliemann's visionary work and the exhaustive research of the scholars who came after him, we are able to place the Trojan War at about 1250 BC. But this all changed in 1871, when Heinrich Schliemann, using only the stories and descriptions contained in Homer's works, was able to locate the site of the historical city of Troy. The stories of the Mycenaeans had already been known for thousands of years, for these people were the same Achaeans, Danaans, and Argives who populated the pages of Homer's two immortal epics,"The Illiad" and "The Odyssey." Assumed to be myths or folktales, or even pure fiction created by Homer, scholars for centuries had refused to accept that Achilles, Odysseus, Agamemnon, his brother Menelaus, and the abducted Queen Helen had actually existed. The digs revealed the Mycenaeans to be war-like conquerors who thrived on plunder and tribute exacted in their devastating raids throughout the Eastern Mediterranean.īut archaeology had come late to the scene. That city, first excavated in the 19th Century by Heinrich Schliemann, yielded vast troves of golden vessels, armor and weapons. Today it is known as the Mycenaean civilization, after the ancient city of Mycenae in Argos which provided most of the early archaeological evidence concerning its existence.

The first Greek empire arose in the second millennium BC. If successful, perhaps the Greeks can even revive their civilization with the plunder from that glittering city across the Aegean.
