Secrets Of The Aegean Apocalypse
Secrets Of The Aegean Apocalypse
Aegean civilization is a general term for the Bronze Age civilizations of Greece around the Aegean Sea. There are three distinct but communicating and interacting geographic regions covered by this term: Crete, the Cyclades and the Greek mainland. Crete is associated with the Minoan civilization from the Early Bronze Age. The Cyclades converge with the mainland during the Early Helladic ("Minyan") period and with Crete in the Middle Minoan period. From ca. 1450 BC (Late Helladic, Late Minoan), the Greek Mycenaean civilization spreads to Crete. The curtain-wall and towers of the Mycenaean citadel, its gate with heraldic lions, and the great "Treasury of Atreus" had borne silent witness for ages before Heinrich Schliemann's time; but they were supposed only to speak to the Homeric, or, at farthest, a rude Heroic beginning of purely Hellenic civilization. It was not until Schliemann exposed the contents of the graves which lay just inside the gate, that scholars recognized the advanced stage of art which prehistoric dwellers in the Mycenaean citadel had attained. There had been, however, a good deal of other evidence available before 1876, which, had it been collated and seriously studied, might have discounted the sensation that the discovery of the citadel graves eventually made. Although it was recognized that certain tributaries, represented for example, in the XVIIIth Dynasty tomb of Rekhmara at Egyptian Thebes as bearing vases of peculiar forms, were of some Mediterranean race, neither their precise habitat nor the degree of their civilization could be determined while so few actual prehistoric remains were known in the Mediterranean lands. Nor did the Aegean objects which were lying obscurely in museums in 1870, or thereabouts, provide a sufficient test of the real basis underlying the Hellenic myths of the Argolid, the Troad and Crete, to cause these to be taken seriously. Aegean vases have been exhibited both at Sèvres and Neuchatel since about 1840, the provenance (i.e. source or origin) being in the one case Phylakope in Melos, in the other Cephalonia. Ludwig Ross, the German archaeologist appointed Curator of the Antiquities of Athens at the time of the establishment of the Kingdom of Greece, by his explorations in the Greek islands from 1835 onwards, called attention to certain early intaglios, since known as Inselsteine; but it was not until 1878 that C. T. Newton demonstrated these to be no strayed Phoenician products. In 1866 primitive structures were discovered on the island of Therasia by quarrymen extracting pozzolana, a siliceous volcanic ash, for the Suez Canal works. When this discovery was followed up in 1870, on the neighbouring Santorin (Thera), by representatives of the French School at Athens, much pottery of a class now known immediately to precede the typical late Aegean ware, and many stone and metal objects, were found. These were dated by the geologist Ferdinand A. Fouqué, somewhat arbitrarily, to 2000 B.C., by consideration of the superincumbent eruptive stratum.- published: 12 Nov 2013

Birth Of Europe 02 Colliding Continents, Age of Bronze
This is an old six part series made by BBC and aired on the history channel in 1991 or 1992, narrated by Jack Perkins. We only have the first two episodes, the rest was lost in a fire. If anyone knows where we can get the rest (preferably with Jack Perkins narrating) please comment or best if you have it please upload and leave a link in comments. Thanks ever so much! Yes we know it was remade in 2012 but we prefer the original.- published: 16 Aug 2013

Yet more points about bronze age swords
Yet more points about bronze age swords
In reaction to the comments on the mellow jazz used in the last bronze age swords video, I have gone to the other farcical extreme and used wildly over-the-top action music. You may now decide that you preferred the jazz. I forgot to measure the Gundlingen and Naue swords, I'm afraid, but you can see roughly their length by comparison with the Wilburton. All swords shown owned by Mick Skelly, who, as you have probably guessed, was sitting just out of shot. A curious thing about these videos is how the title plates are my usual cream writing on a red-brown background, and yet for some reason when I upload them to YouTube, they change to almost black and white. If anyone knows why this happens, do tell. www.LloydianAspects.co.uk- published: 05 Dec 2013

Romeo & Julietsky? Bronze Age embracing skeletons discovered in Southern Russia
Archaeologists near the town of Krasny Sulin in the Rostov region have discovered two skeletons believed to be from around 2,000 BC. The human remains were found lying face to face -- judging by the structure of the bones the bodies are thought to be males. After anthropologists determine the sex and it is indeed two males -- this has never been seen before.

The Nordic Bronze Age (Solringen - Wardruna)
The Nordic Bronze Age (Solringen - Wardruna)
The Bronze Age in southern Scandinavia surpasses most of bronze age europe. It is the richest period of finds, crafts, creativity and artistic expression. Only in Mycenaean Greece there is an equivalent in findings. In Scandinavia it developed over 1000 years the prime Bronze Age craftsmanship and crafts in Europe. Large quantities of buried amber treasures has been found from Bronze Age Scandinavia. Amber was also a very important commodity in countries around the mediterranean sea. Tutankhamun was buried with an amber held over his heart. Amber was seen as magical during the Bronze Age and was used for jewelry. In the richest graves of Mycenae in Greece, it has been found large collars of amber. Modern analysis shows that those amber comes from the Baltic Sea. The Nordic bronze age fits also the Greeks description of their contact with the Hyperboreans in the far north. Amber seems ta have been the Nordic gold during the Bronze Age. Svenska: Bronsåldern i södra skandinavien överträffar det mesta i europa. Det är den rikaste perioden på fynd, konsthantverk, kreativitet och konstnärliga uttryck. Endast i Mykene och Grekland finner man nått motsvarande. I skandinavien utvecklas i ca 1000 år det främsta bronsåldershantverket och konsthantverket i Europa. Stora mängder nedgrävda bärnstens skatter har hittats i bronsålderns skandinavien. Bärnsten var också en mycket viktig handelsvara i rikena runt medelhavet. Den nordiska bronsåldern passar perfekt in i Grekernas beskrivningen av Hyperboréerna som levde långt upp i norr. Tutankhamon blev begravd med en bärnsten över hjärtat. Bärnstenen ansågs magisk under Bronsåldern och användes till smycken. I de rikaste gravarna i Grekland Mykene finner man stora halskragar av bärnsten. Moderna analyser visar att bärnstenen kommer ifrån Östersjön. Bärnstenen framstår som Nordens guld under Bronsåldern.
