**Bronze Age: A time before people had access to irons tools and weapons.** Mycenae was one of Greece’s important centers. The Mycenaean Civilization came into power around 1600 B.C after the first great civilization of the Aegean world known as the Minoan power was destroyed due to a fire. King Agamemnon was their legendary leader that brought prosperity to the once thriving state. Mycenaean’s were warriors, each man was taught and expected to fight. Hunting was a favorite way for Myceanaen nobles to prove their strength and courage.  Mycenaeans were great traders and sailed far and wide. Trading connections reached northern Europe and the Baltic Sea.
