Mycenae

The masonry of the city wall, shown on the vase in the Mycenaean grave, is not the ordinary masonry of Mycenae itself.

Even in Grave V. at Mycenae, we have a sword blade so massive at the top that it was certainly capable of a swashing blow.

Among the former the gold ornaments found by Heinrich Schliemann in the graves of Mycenae are pre-eminent.

The other group, which were found in smaller “treasures,” have spirals and rosettes similar to those of Mycenae.

In the Iliad Mycenae is represented as being the home of Agamemnon.
