Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book's author aims to prove that Homeric civilization, portrayed in various details throughout his work, was lived in a brief, definable period and was not a fictional society. The author provides a contrast by comparing the era to the four distinct ages of prehistoric Greece. The first is the Late Minoan, marked by high artistic achievements and a society without war. The second is Homeric Greece, characterized by bronze as the primary metal and a focus on warfare. The third, a dark period, bears evidence of iron in wider use, accompanied by art and culture in decline. The fourth is proto-historic Greece, with Sparta yielding the richest archaeological evidence. The author presents evidence to support their argument, primarily through a comparison of Homeric descriptions with archaeological evidence, scholarly consensus, and other ancient works such as the Cyclic poems. The book as a whole, through analysis of the material record, offers new insights on the timeframe of Homeric Greece, a subject of long-standing debate among scholars. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333802172_0
