The Nile on eBay   FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE   Mycenae by Heinrich Schliemann, W.E. Gladstone Mycenae (1878) is the account of Heinrich Schliemann's famous archaeological excavations of the lost Greek cities of Mycenae and Tiryns, which began in 1876, and which revealed that the two cities had a historical reality outside Homeric epic. The volume is generously illustrated with images of artefacts, maps and charts. FORMATPaperback LANGUAGEEnglish CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description Heinrich Schliemann (1822–1890) published Mycenae, an account of his archaeological excavations of the ancient Greek cities of Mycenae and Tiryns, in 1878. Schliemann's astonishing finds revealed that the cities had a historical reality outside Homeric epic. His excavations uncovered many priceless treasures, most famously the 'death mask of Agamemnon' and the shaft graves, filled with pottery, carved stones, skeletons, gold, jewellery and weaponry. He also uncovered much about the layout and architecture of the two lost cities. The volume is generously illustrated with images of artefacts, maps and charts. It is introduced by W. E. Gladstone, who gave Schliemann the political assistance necessary for the excavations to take place. Schliemann's discoveries were met with wild enthusiasm, and while today his methods of excavation are deplored and many of his conclusions thought to be ill-founded, he is rightly credited with the discovery of the lost and ancient Mycenaean civilisation.
