Considered by many to be the first Greeks, the Mycenaean
elevated their culture through the conquest of others. Located primarily on the
Greek mainland, this power would come to rule over thousands of people before
setting their sites on their Minoan neighbors to the south. With the island of
Crete only a short distance away, the Mycenaean conquered the Minoan people and
ended their way of life. Although a complete victory, it was only then that the
Myceneans truly flourished as their adopted and adapted Minoan civilization to
make themselves the most powerful force in the region. On this episode we
discuss the rise and fall of the Mycenaeans, the first Greeks.
