  • We are in the Megaron, the great open atrium of the king's palace.
  • The megaron was a great architectural feat for the Greeks, and represents the Myceaneans inventive nature and craftsmanship.
  • In the megaron, citizens like us trade, celebrate festivals and hear speeches.
  • Not only were these palaces great defenses for a civilization that was constantly warring, they helped influence Greek architecture and defense for centuries to come.
  • I am an artisan, who creates beautiful leather goods in workshops all around this palace.
  • I am but a humble farmer, who has come to the palace's megaron to pay my taxes.
  • I am the Wanax, or the all-powerful Mycenaean king. It is my job to regulate the people, collect taxes, and make offerings to the gods.
  • One of the major successes of Mycenaean Greek was said to have been their system of rule, as it kept a tight control on the citizens and was power centered.

  • I am the depiction of a poorer man who is required to bull-jump, and I'm not sure how to feel about it.

  • Why must I always be used for entertainment!
  • The Linear B tablets will finally be deciphered in June 1952 by a cryptologist named Michael Ventris, although a female cryptologist probably deciphered them much earlier.
  • Hello, it's the Wanax, back in another part of the great megaron. I'm here to talk to you about our linear B tablets.
  • The Linear B tablets would be highly influential because they were the cornerstone for Greek, a language that is still thriving today. Additionally, the systems of organization in the tablets probably affected many governmental records for centuries to come. The Linear B tablets were a sign of our success, as they were organized, proper, and concise government records.
