"Describes Greece and the Aegean (excluding Macedonia) during the period c. 1125-900 B.C. -- a period veiled in obscurity and beset by unsolved problems, but of vital importance. Its early years cover the last flickers of the Mycenaean world; and it is possible to suggest what may have led to the disappearance of the earlier culture. A new culture took its place, and this eventually led to the glories of Archaic and Classical Greece. ... [This book] gives Early and Late Dark Age evidence on a regional pattern." (dj).
