Mycenae is much more Impressive than you think | Megalithomania

Hugh Newman explores the enigmatic megalithic acropolis of Mycenae, based near Mykines in Argolis, north-eastern Peloponnese, Greece. It has the famous Lion Gate, sophisticated polygonal and cyclopean walls, other remarkable construction and stunning Tholos Tombs. Pausanias, a Greek geographer, ascribes the name to the legendary founder Perseus, who was said to have named it after a mushroom he had plucked on the site, and hence chose this site to build the acropolis. There are legendary associations with water nymphs, the cyclops giants, and the Olympian Gods, and it dates back to at least 1600 BC, although it could be much older. One thing is for sure - it's seriously megalithic! https://linktr.ee/megalithomania Copyright Megalithomania LTD MMXXVI. All Rights Reserved.
