EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Mycenae: A Journey Through Time to the Royal Tombs of Ancient Greece Mycenae, an ancient city nestled in the heart of the Peloponnese region in Greece, is a testament to the rich and complex civilization that flourished in Europe between 1600 and 1100 BC. This photograph captures the awe-inspiring sight of the Mycenaean Acropolis, with its iconic Lion Gate and the Royal Tombs of Grave Circles A and B. The Mycenaean civilization, also known as the Mycenaean Age or the Mycenaean Greek civilization, was a Bronze Age civilization that marked the beginning of the second millennium BC in Greece. This civilization is renowned for its advanced art, architecture, and military organization, which enabled it to form powerful city-states and join forces with other Mediterranean countries. The Royal Tombs, located outside the Mycenae Acropolis, are a significant archaeological discovery that provides insights into the lives of the Mycenaean rulers. Grave Circle A and B, in particular, have yielded numerous treasures, including the famous Mask of Agamemnon, which is now displayed in the National Archaeological Museum in Athens. This photograph, taken in Argolis, Greece, showcases the exterior of the tombs, which are surrounded by ruins and remains of the once-mighty Mycenaean civilization. The image evokes a sense of wonder and curiosity about the people who built these tombs and the civilization they belonged to. Mycenae, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in history and archaeology. The site invites us to journey back in time and explore the mysteries of this ancient civilization that left behind such impressive remains.
