The Mycenaean civilization flourished in the late Bronze Age, between 1600 and 1200 BCE. During this period, it was mainly located in the Peloponnese and Central Greece. Myceneans were known for exploring distant lands. Notably, they battled the Hittite allied city of Wilusa in a conflict that was believed to be the inspiration for Homer's Trojan War. But the Myceanaean people didn't only travel to fight. They learned much from their neighbors, the Minoans of Krete, such as how to write syllabic script on clay tablets. Such tablets provide evidence that Mycenaeans spoke an early form of Greek. They also tell of how great Mycenaean kings ruled over their warriors from opulent palaces in places like Mycenae, Thebes, and Knossos. Mycenaean warriors roamed the seas on twenty to fifty-oared galleys. Knowledge about their various ventures abroad can be traced back to many sources, such as cargo from Bronze Age shipwrecks and Egyptian pharaonic artifacts discovered in Mycenaean palaces.
